Discharge at Initial Time Formula Elements

Variables
Discharge at Time t=0
Discharge at Time t=0 is the rate of flow of a liquid that moves over a designated point over a fixed period.
Symbol: Q0
Measurement: Volumetric Flow RateUnit: m³/s
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Discharge at Time t
Discharge at Time t is the volumetric flow rate of a stream, which volume of water flowing per rate of time at any time t.
Symbol: Qt
Measurement: Volumetric Flow RateUnit: m³/s
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Recession Constant
Recession Constant is the ratio of discharge after the unit time step of some specific initial discharge to specific initial discharge, provided both discharges are along the same straight segment.
