A sharp-crested triangular weir with a notch angle of 80° is used to measure the discharge rate of water from a large lake into a spillway. If a weir with half the notch angle (? = 40°) is used instead, determine the percent reduction in the flow rate. Assume the water depth in the lake and the weir discharge coefficient remain unchanged.
What is the significance of the Determination of the coefficient of discharge of a 90-degree triangular notch weir experiment?
