Manning's Formula for Hydraulic Radius given Velocity of Flow in Culverts Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Hydraulic Radius of Channel = (Mean Velocity of Culverts/sqrt(2.2*Bed Slope of Channel/(Manning’s Roughness Coefficient*Manning’s Roughness Coefficient)))^(2/3)
r_h = (v_m/sqrt(2.2*S/(n*n)))^(2/3)
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

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.
Mean Velocity of Culverts - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Mean Velocity of Culverts is defined as the average velocity of a fluid at a point and over an arbitrary time T.
Bed Slope of Channel - Bed Slope of Channel is used to calculate the shear stress at the bed of an open channel containing fluid that is undergoing steady, uniform flow.
Manning’s Roughness Coefficient - Manning’s Roughness Coefficient represents the roughness or friction applied to the flow by the channel.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Mean Velocity of Culverts: 10 Meter per Second --> 10 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Bed Slope of Channel: 0.0127 --> No Conversion Required
Manning’s Roughness Coefficient: 0.012 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

r_h = (v_m/sqrt(2.2*S/(n*n)))^(2/3) --> (10/sqrt(2.2*0.0127/(0.012*0.012)))^(2/3)

Evaluating ... ...

r_h = 0.801761805583007

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.801761805583007 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.801761805583007 ≈ 0.801762 Meter <-- Hydraulic Radius of Channel
