Side Slope of Section given Wetted Area for Bottom Width is kept Constant Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Side slope of Trapezoidal Channel = Depth of Flow*Depth of Flow/Wetted Surface Area of Trapezoidal Channel
z_trap = d_f*d_f/S_Trap
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Side slope of Trapezoidal Channel - Side slope of Trapezoidal Channel is side slope of trapezoidal channel, defined as horizontal to vertical ratio.
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 Trapezoidal Channel - (Measured in Square Meter) - Wetted Surface Area of Trapezoidal Channel [length^2] is the total area of outer surface in contact with the surrounding water.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Depth of Flow: 3.3 Meter --> 3.3 Meter No Conversion Required
Wetted Surface Area of Trapezoidal Channel: 18.86 Square Meter --> 18.86 Square Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

z_trap = d_f*d_f/S_Trap --> 3.3*3.3/18.86

Evaluating ... ...

z_trap = 0.577412513255567

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.577412513255567 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.577412513255567 ≈ 0.577413 <-- Side slope of Trapezoidal Channel

What is Wetted Area?

The surface area that interacts with the working fluid or gas. In maritime use, the wetted area is the area of the hull which is immersed in water. In aeronautics, the wetted area is the area which is in contact with the external airflow. This has a direct relationship on the overall aerodynamic drag of the aircraft.
