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.
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.
The new order calls for higher monthly rates for solar-owning customers from $12.75 to $17.90. In addition to increase in charges, the volumetric rate was lowered from $0.111/kWh to $0.108/kWh. Also, it was determined that over a 12-year period, the rate will reach $38.51 while the volumetric rate will drop to $0.999/kWh.
As the Los Angeles metropolitan area grew in the early 1900s, Mulholland and others began looking for new sources of water. Eventually, Los Angeles laid claim to the waters of the Owens Valley, east of the Sierra Nevada, and in 1913 completed the 240-mile (390 km) Los Angeles Aqueduct to deliver its waters to the burgeoning city.
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 ...
