Depth of Flow when Width of Channel in Most Efficient Channel for Bottom Width is kept Constant Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Depth of Flow = Width of Trap Channel*Side slope of Trapezoidal Channel/(1-(Side slope of Trapezoidal Channel^2))
d_f = B_trap*z_trap/(1-(z_trap^2))
This formula uses 3 Variables

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.
Width of Trap Channel - (Measured in Meter) - Width of Trap Channel is the width of the trapezoidal cross-section of the beam parallel to the axis in consideration.
Side slope of Trapezoidal Channel - Side slope of Trapezoidal Channel is side slope of trapezoidal channel, defined as horizontal to vertical ratio.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Width of Trap Channel: 3.8105 Meter --> 3.8105 Meter No Conversion Required

What is Open Channel Flow?

Open-channel flow, a branch of hydraulics and fluid mechanics, is a type of liquid flow within a conduit or in channel with a free surface, known as a channel. The other type of flow within a conduit is pipe flow. These two types of flow are similar in many ways but differ in one important respect: the free surface.
