TCP/IP
Transmission Control
Protocol/Internet Protocol
TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is a set of rules used along
with the Internet Protocol (IP) to send data in the form of
message units between computers over the Internet.
HTTP
Hyper Text Transfer Protocol
HTTP is a set of rules for exchanging files (text, graphic images,
sound, video and other multimedia files) on the Web.
DHCP
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
DHCP is a standard protocol that automates the process of
configuring network hosts by allowing hosts to obtain IP
addresses and configuration parameters.
ICMP
Internet Control Message Protocol
ICMP is used by network devices, like routers, to send error
messages indicating, or to relay query messages.
Gateway

4Theory of Operation
Discharge measurement is important for a wide variety of purposes including flood and pollution control, irrigation,
watercourse regulations and broadly as an input data for dimensioning of almost any new structure on the open channel
flows.
Discharge is calculated by multiplying mean flow velocity and channel cross-section area. The cross-section area is the area
of the slice in the water column made perpendicular to the flow direction.
For ideal case, let us assume the rectangular channel profile, with constant flow velocity at all points, as in Figure 1 Simple
Channel Diagram.
Figure 1 Simple Channel Diagram
The discharge can be calculated according to the formula:
Q = V * A
Where,
•Q is discharge (in m3/s)
•V is flow velocity (in m/s)
•and A is cross-section area (in m2).
For real-world measurements it is important to understand that the velocity of the moving water varies both across the
stream channel and from the surface to the bottom of the stream due to friction, as in Figure 2 Flow velocity in a typical
cross-section.
Figure 2 Flow velocity in a typical cross-section
In order to determine the discharge in a realistic channel, the area must be precisely measured by measuring water depths
at a series of points across the stream and multiplying by the width of the stream within each segment represented by the
depth measurement. The mean cross-section flow velocity needs to be determined from measured surface flow velocity.
Studies performed by USGS reveal that, typically, the mean velocity is 80-95% of the surface velocity, the average being 85%
Knowing non-rectangular area of the stream cross-section, and knowing the surface flow velocity, the following formula can
be used:
Q = k * V * A
