Weir or notch is a physical structure of masonry constructed across the channel width to calculate the discharge of the channel section.
Rectangular Notch:
The discharge through a rectangular notch weir is,
\(Q = \frac{2}{3}{C_d}L\;\sqrt {2g} \;{H^{3/2}}\)
Where, Q = discharge of fluid, Cd = Coefficient of discharge and H = height of water above the notch
Triangular Notch:
A V-notch weir is also called the triangular notch or weir. The discharge over a triangular weir or notch is given by the:
\(Q = \frac{8}{{15}}{C_d}tan\frac{\theta }{2}\;\sqrt {2g} \;{H^{5/2}}\)
Where, Q = discharge of fluid, Cd = Coefficient of discharge, θ = Notch angle and H = height of water above the notch
Trapezoidal weir (or) Notch:
\(Q = \frac{2}{3}{C_{{d_1}}}\sqrt {2g} \;LH^{\frac{3}{2}} + \frac{8}{{15}}{C_{{d_2}}}\sqrt {2g} .\tan \frac{\theta }{2}.{H^{\frac{5}{2}}}\)
Where, \(\left( {\frac{\theta }{2}} \right)\) = weir angle of inclination with the vertical.
\({C_{{d_1}}}\) = Coefficient of discharge for rectangular portion.
\({C_{{d_2}}}\) = Coefficient of discharge for the triangular portion.
