Serbo-Croat term or phrase: protok
Drage kolege,

pojavio mi se problem kod termina "protok", hidroelektrane su u pitanju. Pojavljuje se u kombinacijama tipa "instalisan protok" ili "srednji protok u toku godine" i slicno. Mada sam naletela na izraze "installed discharge" vidim da se koristi i "installed flow" ili pak "flow rate", koji je meni licno lepsi, pa me zanima koji je ispravan termin.

Moze li neko da mi pomogne?

Hvala!

English translation:flow rate
Explanation:
...svakako je "rate" jer se racuna u jedinici vremena (kolicina u jedinici vremena". Cini mi se da je tekst prilicno strucan i da zahtijeva preciznost.

Pridjevi ispred mogu biti: mean, average, nominal...

The rate, expressed in gallons -or liters-per-hour, at which a fluid escapes from a hole or fissure in a tank. Such measurements are also made of liquid waste, effluent, and surface water movement.
http://www.epa.gov/OCEPAterms/fterms.html

The volume of water flowing through plumbing, taps or showerheads in any one given period of time. Usually measured in volume per min.
http://www.ecoselect.net.au/glossary

A measure of the volume of water moving past a given point in a given period of time.
http://www.wmwd.com/terminology.htm

The rate by which water is discharged from an outlet. For example, the standard flow rate of a showerhead is 2.5 gallons per minute.
http://www.nachi.org/glossary/f.htm

The volume of water flowing past a given point during a specified time; measured in gallons per minute (gpm) or gallons per hour (gph).
http://www.httg.com/pump_glossary.htm

Flow rate is a way of describing how much material goes through or past a specific point in a fixed period of time. If nozzle tip is used as reference, flow rate can be described how much melt is flowing out of the machine per second during injection.

the volume of material passing a fixed point per unit time.
http://www.gepolymerland.com/technical/designgloss.html

The amount of material flowing through the system per unit of time. The amount may be expressed in gravimetric (weight) or volumetric terms. Examples: grams/minute, ml/min, lb/hour, gallons/hour.
http://www.nordson.com/Businesses/Packaging/TechSupport/hmgl...

The rate at which fluid is pumped from the pump. It is typically expressed in milliliters per day, ie, mL/24h.
http://www.vetimplant.com/glossary.html

The quantity of water or regenerant which passes a given point in a specified unit of time, often expressed in gallons per minute.
http://www.advancedh2o.com/technical/glossary_def.html

Amount of water flowing past a point for a specific time. Measured in cubic feet per second (ft3/sec).
http://basineducation.uwex.edu/gpsp/projects/stream/definiti...

means the volume per time unit given to the flow of gases or other fluid substance which emerges from an orifice, pump, turbine or passes along a conduit or channel.
http://www.setonresourcecenter.com/cfr/40CFR/P146_005.HTM

The quantity of water available and/or needed per second, per minute, per hour or per day
http://www.irrig8right.com.au/Glossary/Glossary.htm

The rate a liquid flows through a pipe or plumbing fixture, typically measured in gallons per minute or hour (GPM/GPH).
http://www.greenwoodtechnologies.com/glossary.htm

(1) Running rate: The inverse of cycle time, for example, 360 units per shift [APIC]. (2) Continuous/Liquid/Fluid/Gaseous flow in terms of Units/Second-Minute-Hour.
http://www.pera.net/Tools/Glossary/Enterprise_Integration/Gl...

The rate of liquid or gas flow [lbs./hr]
http://www.aihti.com/terms.html

flow: the amount of fluid that flows in a given time
http://wordnet.princeton.edu/perl/webwn

In fluid dynamics, the rate of fluid flow is the volume of fluid which passes through a given area per unit time. It is also called flux.

agree  V&M Stanković: naravno, protok je "flow RATE" (npr. u m3/s); a samo "flow" je tok, struja i sl. - u opštem smislu

Explanation:
radio sam tri godine kao prevodilac u vodoprivrednom projektu i stranci konsultanti i vođe tima su uvijek koristili termin "discharge" za protok, a "runoff" za oticaj
