Enter the length, width, and depth of the area in feet into the calculator to determine the volume of water in acre-feet; this calculator can also evaluate any of the variables given the others are known.
Acre Foot Of Water Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the volume of water in acre-feet:
V = L * W * D / 43560
Variables:
- V is the volume of water in acre-feet
- L is the length of the area in feet
- W is the width of the area in feet
- D is the depth of the water in feet
To calculate the volume of water in acre-feet, multiply the length, width, and depth of the area in feet. Then divide the result by 43,560, which is the number of square feet in an acre.
What is a Acre Foot Of Water?
An acre-foot of water is a unit of volume commonly used in the United States in reference to large-scale water resources, such as reservoirs, aqueducts, canals, sewer flow capacity, irrigation water, and river flows. It is defined as the volume of one acre of surface area to a depth of one foot. This is equivalent to exactly 43,560 cubic feet, approximately 325,851.4 US gallons, or approximately 1,233.5 cubic meters. This measurement is typically used in the context of water supply and usage, and it provides a standardized method of assessing the amount of water available or required for various purposes, such as agricultural irrigation, municipal water supply, or industrial processes.
How to Calculate Acre Foot Of Water?
The following steps outline how to calculate the Cost Recovery Ratio for an Acre Foot Of Water.
- First, determine the revenue generated from selling an acre foot of water ($).
- Next, determine the total costs associated with producing and delivering an acre foot of water ($).
- Next, gather the formula from above = CRR = Revenue / Total Costs.
- Finally, calculate the Cost Recovery Ratio for an Acre Foot Of Water.
- After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.
Example Problem :
