  2. Manning formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manning_formula

    The Chézy coefficient was introduced in 1768 while the Gauckler–Manning coefficient was first developed in 1865, well before the classical pipe flow resistance experiments in the 1920–1930s. Historically both the Chézy and the Gauckler–Manning coefficients were expected to be constant and functions of the roughness only.

  3. Hydraulic roughness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_roughness

    Hydraulic roughness is the measure of the amount of frictional resistance water experiences when passing over land and channel features. [1] It quantifies the impact of surface irregularities and obstructions on the flow of water. One roughness coefficient is Manning's n-value. [2]

  4. Albert Strickler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Strickler

    Strickler proposed that hydraulic roughness could be characterized as a function of measurable surface roughness and described the concept of relative roughness, the ratio of hydraulic radius to surface roughness. He applied these concepts to the development of a dimensionally homogeneous form of the Manning formula. [1] [2]

  5. Flow in partially full conduits - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_in_partially_full...

    However, an important assumption is taken that Manning’s Roughness coefficient ‘n’ is independent to the depth of flow while calculating these values. Also, the dimensional curve of Q/Q(full) shows that when the depth is greater than about 0.82D, then there are two possible different depths for the same discharge, one above and below the ...

  6. EPANET - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EPANET

    Chezy-Manning formula: used to model pressurized flow by using Chezy's roughness coefficients for Manning's equation; Since the pipe segment headloss equation is used within the network solver, the formula above is selected for the entire model.

  7. Hazen–Williams equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hazen–Williams_equation

    S foot of water per foot of pipe; P d = pressure drop over the length of pipe in psig (pounds per square inch gauge pressure) L = length of pipe in feet; Q = flow, gpm (gallons per minute) C = pipe roughness coefficient; d = inside pipe diameter, in (inches) Note: Caution with U S Customary Units is advised. The equation for head loss in pipes ...

  8. Chézy formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chézy_formula

    This similarity between the Chézy and Manning formulas shown above also means that the standardized Manning coefficients may be used to estimate open channel flow velocity with the Chézy formula, [1] [2] [7] by using them to calculate the Chézy's coefficient as shown below. Manning derived [5] the following relationship between Manning ...

  9. A-Jacks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A-Jacks

    Open channel applications include bank stabilization, flow and grade control, scour protection for bridge piers, and biostabilization.The primary mechanism of protection employed is an increase in the relative roughness of the channel bank (as characterized by the Manning's Roughness Coefficient); the Manning's n is relatively high at 0.1.
