Fancy math & water tempt

**brettw** · 10-07-2016, 05:37 PM

I did some fancy math and using it with the assumption that X rain will fall on a lake with X sq ft, I came up with a lake water cooling formula that indicates how much cooling hurricane Matthew will cause on Lake Wylie

Do you take into account the run off around the lake ? The volume of real cold water from the bottom of the dam, or the cooling effect of the high winds. Or are you just guessing?

Don't forget to account for the nighttime cooling temps this next week and the amount of cubic feet of water that will run into the lake from the rains also. Are you using the SWAG system.............or what?!?

Also the effect of all the beer drinkers dumping gallons of 98.6 degree water into the lake. This is not a constant value either, weekends being much higher along with holidays.
Be easier just to use a thermometer.

Brettw has entirely too much time on his hands! He needs a job!

he's going to work Monday as a mathematician (looked that word up in the "W" dictionary)
but he has to stay on his meds.

Factorization of all water flow, and the answer

Your calculated formula as with nature only produces muddy water! So what's your fancy math got for how long it takes for the water to clear up?
