Depth of Flow given Wetted Area of Triangular Channel Section Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Depth of Flow = sqrt(Wetted Surface Area of Channel/(Theta+cot(Theta)))
d_f = sqrt(A/(θ+cot(θ)))
This formula uses 2 Functions, 3 Variables

Functions Used

cot - Cotangent is a trigonometric function that is defined as the ratio of the adjacent side to the opposite side in a right triangle., cot(Angle)
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

Depth of Flow - (Measured in Meter) - Depth of Flow is the distance from the top or surface of the flow to the bottom of a channel or other waterway or Depth of Flow at the Vertical while measuring Sound Weights.
Wetted Surface Area of Channel - (Measured in Square Meter) - Wetted Surface Area of Channel [length^2] is the total area of outer surface in contact with the surrounding water.
Theta - (Measured in Radian) - Theta is an angle that can be defined as the figure formed by two rays meeting at a common endpoint.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Wetted Surface Area of Channel: 25 Square Meter --> 25 Square Meter No Conversion Required
Theta: 30 Degree --> 0.5235987755982 Radian (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

d_f = sqrt(A/(θ+cot(θ))) --> sqrt(25/(0.5235987755982+cot(0.5235987755982)))

Evaluating ... ...

d_f = 3.32915632139485

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

3.32915632139485 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

3.32915632139485 ≈ 3.329156 Meter <-- Depth of Flow

(Calculation completed in 00.006 seconds)
