The Gauckler–Manning coefficient, often denoted as n, is an empirically derived coefficient, which is dependent on many factors, including surface roughness and sinuosity. When field inspection is not possible, the best method to determine n is to use photographs of river channels where n has been determined using Gauckler–Manning's formula.
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]
In civil engineering practice, the Manning formula is more widely used than Stricker’s dimensionally homogeneous form of the equation. However, Strickler’s observations on the influence of surface roughness and the concept of relative roughness are common features of a variety of formulas used to estimate hydraulic roughness. [1] [4]
The Manning equation improved Chézy's equation by better representing the relationship between R h and velocity, while also replacing the empirical Chézy coefficient with the Manning resistance coefficient (), which is also referenced in places as the Manning roughness coefficient. [3]
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 ...

Mama, he's coming home. Former New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning, who now lives with his wife and four kids in Summit, New Jersey, is going back to his hometown of New Orleans for the 2025 ...
Churchill equation [24] (1977) is the only equation that can be evaluated for very slow flow (Reynolds number < 1), but the Cheng (2008), [25] and Bellos et al. (2018) [8] equations also return an approximately correct value for friction factor in the laminar flow region (Reynolds number < 2300). All of the others are for transitional and ...
