I'm trying to determine the capacity of a concrete drainage flume at the end of a reverse-draining cul-de-sac. (A cul-de-sac that drains to the back.)
I've calculated its capacity as an open channel, but I don't think that adequately represents the situation since I'd expect losses at the entrance. I've also looking at as weir, but that result seems unrealistically low. I don’t want to be overly conservative on this one.
Any ideas how to model this?
Attached is a picture. Thanks.
