Flow refers to the volume of water in the river and is given in cumecs. One cumec equals one cubic metre of water flowing past a point in one second<\/b>. One cubic metre of water equals one thousand litres and weighs one tonne.<\/p>\n
Similarly, How do you calculate discharge? Discharge = V x D x W<\/b><\/p>\n
If length is measured in feet and time in seconds, Discharge has units of feet3<\/sup>\/sec or cubic feet per second (cfs). Depth times Width gives the cross-sectional area. The shape of the channel is important because of the reduction in velocity due to friction along the channel margins.<\/p>\n What is cumec and Cusec? (i)Cusecs: The discharge of the volume of water flowing in the river is measured over time. When the water is measured in cubic feet per second, it is called cusecs. (ii)Cumecs : When the water flowing in the river is measured in cubic metre per second<\/b>, it is called cumecs.<\/p>\n How big is a cumec? Cumec (musec) (cumec) has a dimension of L3<\/sup>T–<\/sup>1<\/sup> where<\/b> L is length, and T is time. It essentially the same as the corresponding standard SI unit m3<\/sup>\/s.<\/p>\n Secondly How do you convert cumec to Cusec? 1 cusec is equal to 0.028316847 cubic meter\/second<\/b>.<\/p>\nHow do you calculate drainage discharge?<\/h2>\n
