  2. Clark County Regional Flood Control District - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clark_County_Regional...

    The belief is that these structures will control the flow of water when there is storm runoff and reduce flooding in areas below the basins and near the channels and washes. The detention basins operated by the district vary in size from 10 to 50 acres (4.0 to 20.2 ha) and are up to 50 feet (15 m) deep.

  3. Ivanpah Solar Power Facility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivanpah_Solar_Power_Facility

    The local irradiance near the area is about 7.4 kWh/m 2 /day [53] [54] (annual average) for a total solar energy flow in the visible spectrum of 2.717 MWh/m 2 yearly. One heliostat mirror is a 75.6 square feet (7.02 m 2 ) reflecting surface, [ 55 ] giving a total of 151.2 square feet (14.05 m 2 ) per heliostat.

  4. Rate of flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_of_flow

    Rate of flow may refer to: Mass flow rate , the movement of mass per time Volumetric flow rate , the volume of a fluid which passes through a given surface per unit of time

  5. Volumetric flow rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volumetric_flow_rate

    In most contexts a mention of rate of fluid flow is likely to refer to the volumetric rate. In hydrometry, the volumetric flow rate is known as discharge. Volumetric flow rate should not be confused with volumetric flux, as defined by Darcy's law and represented by the symbol q, with units of m 3 /(m 2 ·s), that is, m·s −1. The integration ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Valley_Project

    In the early years of the 21st century, the Bureau of Reclamation finally began to steadily increase the water flow downstream from Lewiston Dam. While providing less water for the CVP altogether, the new flow regime allows operations to meet the line drawn by Reclamation itself in 1952 stating that at least 48% of the river's natural flow must ...

  7. Vortex-induced vibration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vortex-induced_vibration

    Numerical simulation of vortex-induced vibrations due to the flow around a circular cylinder. [1] In fluid dynamics, vortex-induced vibrations (VIV) are motions induced on bodies interacting with an external fluid flow, produced by, or the motion producing, periodic irregularities on this flow. A classic example is the VIV of an underwater ...
