Example 1 ‘V’ Notch   Weir 
 
 
 
In  this  example,  it  is  required  to  calculate  the  flow  through  a  Simple 
Exponential Device, which on this occasion is a V-Notch Weir. Ratiometric 
calculation will be used, to use the customers declared maximum flow, there 
is no requirement for alarms and the flow rate is to be displayed in millions 
of US gallons/day. The totaliser is to record the flow in  thousands of US 
gallons and is to be displayed, via the Resettable Totalisier on the auxiliary 
display line, during RUN. 
The distance from the end of the transducer horn (dB Mach 3) to zero flow 
(P105)  is  40  inches  and  max  head  (P704)  is  15  inches,  maximum 
flow(P705) is known to be 2.2 million US gallons/day.
