Entrance Loss Coefficient given Head on Entrance using Mannings formula

Go Entrance Loss Coefficient = ((Total Head at Entrance of Flow-Normal Depth of Flow)/((2.2*Bed Slope of Channel*Hydraulic Radius of Channel^(4/3)/((Manning’s Roughness Coefficient*Manning’s Roughness Coefficient)))/(2*[g])))-1

Normal Depth of Flow given Head on Entrance measured from Bottom using Mannings formula

Go Normal Depth of Flow = Total Head at Entrance of Flow-(Entrance Loss Coefficient+1)*((2.2*Bed Slope of Channel*Hydraulic Radius of Channel^(4/3)/((Manning’s Roughness Coefficient*Manning’s Roughness Coefficient)))/(2*[g]))

Head on Entrance measured from Bottom of Culvert using Mannings formula

Go Total Head at Entrance of Flow = (Entrance Loss Coefficient+1)*((2.2*Bed Slope of Channel*Hydraulic Radius of Channel^(4/3)/(Manning’s Roughness Coefficient*Manning’s Roughness Coefficient))/(2*[g]))+Normal Depth of Flow

Bed Slope using Mannings Equation

Go Bed Slope of Channel = (Mean Velocity of Culverts/sqrt(2.2*Hydraulic Radius of Channel^(4/3)/(Manning’s Roughness Coefficient*Manning’s Roughness Coefficient)))^(2)

Manning's Formula for Hydraulic Radius given Velocity of Flow in Culverts

Go Hydraulic Radius of Channel = (Mean Velocity of Culverts/sqrt(2.2*Bed Slope of Channel/(Manning’s Roughness Coefficient*Manning’s Roughness Coefficient)))^(2/3)

Velocity of Flow through Mannings Formulas in Culverts

Go Mean Velocity of Culverts = sqrt(2.2*Bed Slope of Channel*Hydraulic Radius of Channel^(4/3)/(Manning’s Roughness Coefficient*Manning’s Roughness Coefficient))

Entrance Loss Coefficient using formula for Head on Entrance measured from Bottom of Culvert

Go Entrance Loss Coefficient = ((Total Head at Entrance of Flow-Normal Depth of Flow)/(Mean Velocity of Culverts*Mean Velocity of Culverts/(2*[g])))-1
