Chezy Constant given Average Velocity in Channel Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Chezy's Constant = Average Velocity of Flow/(sqrt(Hydraulic Radius of Channel*Bed Slope))
C = V_avg/(sqrt(R_H*S))
This formula uses 1 Functions, 4 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Chezy's Constant - The Chezy's constant is a dimensionless quantity that can be calculated by three formulas, namely: Bazin Formula. Ganguillet -Kutter Formula. Manning's Formula.
Average Velocity of Flow - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Average Velocity of Flow is defined as the mean of all different velocities.
Hydraulic Radius of Channel - (Measured in Meter) - Hydraulic Radius of Channel is the ratio of the cross-sectional area of a channel or pipe in which a fluid is flowing to the wet perimeter of the conduit.
Bed Slope - Bed Slope is used to calculate the shear stress at the bed of an open channel containing fluid that is undergoing steady, uniform flow.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Average Velocity of Flow: 0.32 Meter per Second --> 0.32 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Hydraulic Radius of Channel: 1.6 Meter --> 1.6 Meter No Conversion Required
