    Dicken's Formula = CM 3/4

    Where C = Dicken's Constant


    M = Catchment Area 1 Sq Km = 0.386 Sq Miles
    Catchment Area in Sq
    Miles
    "C" value

    1400 For < 1Sq Miles

    1200 1 To 33 Sq Miles

    1060 More than 33


    Catchment SqinMiles
    Area Sq
    Km
    "C" value

    19.5 For < 2.5 Sq Km

    16.7 2.5 To 75 Sq Km

    14.6 75 To 1250 Sq Km

    A = 31.470
    Q = 16.7*6.450^(3/4)= 221.8907
    say 221.891 cumecs
    221.891 Cumecs

    Area of vent = Q/V


    73.964
    8 VENTS OF SIZE 3.50 X 3.80

    actual area proposed = 106.400

    actual velocity = 2.0854 m/s
