Discharge (CFS) into Intensity (IN/HR)

Computes the equivalent intensity in watershed inches per hour for a given value of discharge in cubic-feet-per-second (CFS) and a given drainage area in square feet (FT^2)

To convert acres into square feet multiply acres by 43,560.

Area(ft^2) = Area(acres)*43,460(ft^2/acre)

Calculates watershed inches from:

I = (Q/A)*3600*12
where:
   A is drainage area in square feet
   Q is discharge in CFS
   I is intensity in IN/HR
   3600 converts seconds into hours
   12 converts feet into inches

Enter Value for Drainage Area (FT^2):
