Wetted Area given Discharge through Channels Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Wetted Surface Area of Channel = (((Discharge of Channel/Chezy's Constant)^2)*Wetted Perimeter of Channel/Bed Slope)^(1/3)
A = (((Q/C)^2)*p/S)^(1/3)
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Wetted Surface Area of Channel - (Measured in Square Meter) - Wetted Surface Area of Channel [length^2] is the total area of outer surface in contact with the surrounding water.
Discharge of Channel - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge of Channel is the rate of flow of a liquid.
Chezy's Constant - The Chezy's constant is a dimensionless quantity that can be calculated by three formulas, namely: Bazin Formula. Ganguillet -Kutter Formula. Manning's Formula.
Wetted Perimeter of Channel - (Measured in Meter) - Wetted Perimeter of Channel is defined as the surface of the channel bottom and sides in direct contact with the aqueous body.
Bed Slope - Bed Slope is used to calculate the shear stress at the bed of an open channel containing fluid that is undergoing steady, uniform flow.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Discharge of Channel: 14 Cubic Meter per Second --> 14 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Chezy's Constant: 40 --> No Conversion Required
Wetted Perimeter of Channel: 16 Meter --> 16 Meter No Conversion Required
Bed Slope: 0.0004 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

A = (((Q/C)^2)*p/S)^(1/3) --> (((14/40)^2)*16/0.0004)^(1/3)

Evaluating ... ...

A = 16.9849925224181

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

16.9849925224181 Square Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

16.9849925224181 ≈ 16.98499 Square Meter <-- Wetted Surface Area of Channel
