Hello all;
My question for today is this:
I am putting a rectangular weir into a u drain to measure the amount of fluid flowing in the drain. The water flows very, very quickly without the weir, so is a velocity approach correction needed for the speed of the water once the weir is put in?
Thanks for your help

RE: weirs
If the length of the weir opening is 4 to 8 times the weir height, and the height measurement is made 6 ft back from the weir, you can just read the table.
