Open Channel Or Culvert Modules

CALCULATOR MODULE : Dimensionless Number   ±

Calculate dimensionless numbers for fluid flow and other physical systems.

Dimensionless numbers are calculated from groups of variables so that the result is dimensionless. Dimensionless numbers can be calculated from any consistent set of units, and will have the same value. Dimensionless numbers can be a very powerful tool for analysing physical systems.

CALCULATOR MODULE : Water Open Channel Or Culvert Flow Rate From The Manning Equation   ±

Calculate flowrate in circular or rectangular water channels using the Manning equation.

`Q = A (rh^2)/3 s^(1/2) / n `
`rh = A/P `

where :

Q = flow rate
A = cross section area
P = wetted perimeter
rh = hydraulic radius
s = channel slope
n = Manning friction factor

The channel is assumed to be either open, or partly full and at ambient pressure. The head loss equals the change in elevation. Channel roughness is accounted for using the Manning friction factor. The hydraulic radius is the ratio of channel cross section area over the wetted perimeter. Valves, tees and other pipe fittings should be included by adding a minor loss equivalent length to the pipeline length.
