Hydraulic Radius of Triangular Channel Section Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Hydraulic Radius of Channel = Depth of Flow/2
RH = df/2
This formula uses 2 Variables
Variables Used
Hydraulic Radius of Channel - (Measured in Meter) - Hydraulic Radius of Channel is the ratio of the cross-sectional area of a channel or pipe in which a fluid is flowing to the wet perimeter of the conduit.
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.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Depth of Flow: 3.3 Meter --> 3.3 Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
RH = df/2 --> 3.3/2
Evaluating ... ...
RH = 1.65
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
1.65 Meter --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
1.65 Meter <-- Hydraulic Radius of Channel
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

8 Practical Channel Sections Calculators

Hydraulic Radius of Trapezoidal Channel Section
Go Hydraulic Radius of Channel = (Depth of Flow*(Width of Trapezoidal Channel Section+Depth of Flow*(Theta+cot(Theta))))/(Width of Trapezoidal Channel Section+2*Depth of Flow*(Theta+cot(Theta)))
Wetted Area of Trapezoidal Channel Section
Go Wetted Surface Area of Channel = Depth of Flow*(Width of Trapezoidal Channel Section+Depth of Flow*(Theta+cot(Theta)))
Wetted Perimeter of Trapezoidal Channel Section
Go Wetted Perimeter of Channel = (Width of Trapezoidal Channel Section+2*Depth of Flow*(Theta+cot(Theta)))
Depth of Flow given Wetted Area of Triangular Channel Section
Go Depth of Flow = sqrt(Wetted Surface Area of Channel/(Theta+cot(Theta)))
Wetted Area of Triangular Channel Section
Go Wetted Surface Area of Channel = (Depth of Flow^2)*(Theta+cot(Theta))
Depth of Flow given Wetted Perimeter of Triangular Channel Section
Go Depth of Flow = Wetted Perimeter of Channel/(2*(Theta+cot(Theta)))
Wetted Perimeter of Triangular Channel Section
Go Wetted Perimeter of Channel = 2*Depth of Flow*(Theta+cot(Theta))
Hydraulic Radius of Triangular Channel Section
Go Hydraulic Radius of Channel = Depth of Flow/2
