Abstract
As a result of a need identified by operators of wastewater and waterworks plants for simplified discharge equations to monitor flow through their works, the paper presents general purpose equations for this purpose. They are based on calibrations carried out on rectangular standing wave flumes and thin plate weirs, and the established discharge equations given in international and British standards. The general purpose equations enable the operators to carry out spot checks of flow quickly, which is an important consideration in managing these works. For more precise work in flow measurement, however, the paper recommends that international and British standards should be used; for convenience, these equations are also included in the paper.
