How to Calculate and Solve for Head at x in case of No Infiltration or Evaporation | Flow Lines
Last Updated on April 8, 2024
The image above represents the head at x in case of no infiltration or evaporation. To calculate head at x in case of no infiltration or evaporation, four essential parameters are Distance from the origin (x), Head at the Origin (h1), Head at L (h2) and Flow Length (L).
The formula for calculating head at x in case of no infiltration or evaporation:
h = √[h1² – (h1² – h2²)x / L]
Where:
h = Head at x in case of No Infiltration or Evapouration
x = Distance from the Origin
h1 = Head at the Origin
h2 = Head at L
L = Flow Length
Let’s solve an example;
Find the head at x in case of no infiltation or evaporation when the distance from the origin is 10, the head at the origin is 15, head at L is 9 and the flow length is 7.
This implies that;
x = Distance from the Origin = 10
h1 = Head at the Origin = 15
h2 = Head at L = 9
L = Flow Length = 7
h = √[h1² – (h1² – h2²)x / L]
That is, h = √[15² – (15² – 9²)10 / 7]
h = √[225 – (225 – 81)10 / 7]
h = √[225 – (144)10 / 7]
Then, h = √[225 – 1440 / 7]
h = √[225 – 205.714]
So, h = √[19.28]
h = 4.39
Therefore, the heat at x in case of no infiltration or evaporation is 4.39.
