Weighted Curve Number Calculator for a Basin

Weighted Curve Number Calculator for a Basin

Calculate the overall curve number of a basin by weighing the curve numbers of subbasins by their areas:
\[ CN_{weighted} = \frac{\sum (CN_i \times \text{Area}_i)}{\sum \text{Area}_i} \]

* Enter the area (in consistent units) and curve number for each subbasin.

Step 1: Enter Subbasin Data

Example: 10 (units: km² or any consistent unit)

Example: 75

Example: 20 (same units as above)

Example: 80

Example: 15 (same units as above)

Example: 65

Formula: \[ CN_{weighted} = \frac{CN_1 \times A_1 + CN_2 \times A_2 + CN_3 \times A_3}{A_1 + A_2 + A_3} \]
