This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Hydraulic Depth of Trapezoidal Channel - (Measured in Meter) - Hydraulic Depth of Trapezoidal Channel is defined as depth which in contact with water.
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.
Depth of Flow of Trapezoidal Channel - (Measured in Meter) - Depth of Flow of Trapezoidal Channel 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.
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
Depth of Flow of Trapezoidal Channel: 3.32 Meter --> 3.32 Meter No Conversion Required
Side slope of Trapezoidal Channel: 0.577 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
DTrap = ((Btrap+df(trap)*ztrap)*df(trap))/(Btrap+2*df(trap)*ztrap) --> ((3.8105+3.32*0.577)*3.32)/(3.8105+2*3.32*0.577)
Evaluating ... ...
DTrap = 2.48774301275357
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
2.48774301275357 Meter --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
2.48774301275357 2.487743 Meter <-- Hydraulic Depth of Trapezoidal Channel
