A Study Of The Flow Of Water Over Triangular Weirs And The Determination Of Coefficients Of Discharge For Small Heads, J. Milton Barrett
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
The development of artesian and pumped wells as a source of irrigation water has created the need for a measuring device which will be accurate for small discharges. The thin edged weir has been accepted as one of the most accurate and desirable measuring devices for this work. Three types of weirs are now commonly used: the Rectangular, the Cipolleti, and the Triangular Notch weir. Of these types the triangular notch is probably best suited for small discharges (under 3 second feet). The various formulae for discharge over 90% Triangular weirs have been accurately determined for heads over two tenths …
