Section Factor for Rectangle Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Section Factor of Rectangle = Width of Section of Rect Channel*Depth of Flow of Channel^1.5
Z_rect = B_rect*D_f^1.5
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Section Factor of Rectangle - (Measured in Meter^2.5) - Section Factor of Rectangle is ratio of normal to critical channel depth.
Width of Section of Rect Channel - (Measured in Meter) - Width of Section of Rect Channel is the width of the rectangular cross-section of the beam parallel to the axis in consideration.
Depth of Flow of Channel - (Measured in Meter) - Depth of Flow of 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.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Width of Section of Rect Channel: 10.4 Meter --> 10.4 Meter No Conversion Required
Depth of Flow of Channel: 5.2 Meter --> 5.2 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Z_rect = B_rect*D_f^1.5 --> 10.4*5.2^1.5

Evaluating ... ...

Z_rect = 123.321373978723

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

123.321373978723 Meter^2.5 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

123.321373978723 ≈ 123.3214 Meter^2.5 <-- Section Factor of Rectangle
