Thank you.

Discharge slope area

Course subject(s) 1. Waterbalans

Dit college behandeld de ‘slope area method’. Deze methode wordt gebruikt om een debiet te schatten. Eerst worden de helling, doorstroomoppervlak en de ruwheid bepaald en vervolgens wordt met de formule van Riggs het debiet geschat.

The lecture contains the slope area method. This is a method to estimate discharge. First the slope, the cross section and the Roughness have to be determined and after that the Riggs formula is used to estimate the discharge.
