Wetted Perimeter of Channel Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Perimeter of Channel = 4.75*sqrt(Discharge for Regime Channel)
P = 4.75*sqrt(Q)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 2 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Perimeter of Channel - (Measured in Meter) - Perimeter of Channel the surface of the channel bottom and sides in direct contact with the aqueous body.
Discharge for Regime Channel - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge for Regime Channel is a stream channel if it is transporting water and sediment in equilibrium such that there is neither scour of the channel bed.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Discharge for Regime Channel: 35 Cubic Meter per Second --> 35 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

P = 4.75*sqrt(Q) --> 4.75*sqrt(35)

Evaluating ... ...

P = 28.1013789697232

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

28.1013789697232 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

28.1013789697232 ≈ 28.10138 Meter <-- Perimeter of Channel

Velocity for Regime Channel using Lacey's Theory

Go Velocity of Flow in Meter = ((Discharge for Regime Channel*Silt Factor^2)/140)^0.166

Bed Slope of Channel

Go Bed Slope of Channel = (Silt Factor^(5/3))/(3340*Discharge for Regime Channel^(1/6))

Hydraulic Mean Depth for Regime Channel using Lacey's Theory

Go Hydraulic Mean Depth in Meters = (5/2)*((Velocity of Flow in Meter)^2/Silt Factor)

Area of Regime Channel Section

Go Area of Channel = (Discharge for Regime Channel/Velocity of Flow in Meter)

Wetted Perimeter of Channel

Go Perimeter of Channel = 4.75*sqrt(Discharge for Regime Channel)

Wetted Perimeter of Channel Formula

Perimeter of Channel = 4.75*sqrt(Discharge for Regime Channel)
P = 4.75*sqrt(Q)

What is the Wetted Perimeter of a Trapezoidal Channel?

Wetted perimeter is the perimeter of the cross-sectional area of a hydraulic pipe that is wet. When a channel is much wider compared to its depth, then the wetted perimeter is approximately equal to that of the channel width.

How do you find the Wetted Perimeter of a Channel?

The area of the flow will be equal to the channel width, b, multiplied by the flow depth, y. The wetted perimeter, on the other hand, is simply the total length of channel walls which are in contact with the liquid. In the case of the rectangular channel, it's a sum of b + y + y
