Wetted Perimeter given Hydraulic Mean Depth Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Wetted Perimeter of Channel = Wetted Surface Area of Channel/Hydraulic Radius of Channel
p = A/R_H
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Wetted Perimeter of Channel - (Measured in Meter) - Wetted Perimeter of Channel is defined as the surface of the channel bottom and sides in direct contact with the aqueous body.
Wetted Surface Area of Channel - (Measured in Square Meter) - Wetted Surface Area of Channel [length^2] is the total area of outer surface in contact with the surrounding water.
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.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Wetted Surface Area of Channel: 25 Square Meter --> 25 Square Meter No Conversion Required
Hydraulic Radius of Channel: 1.6 Meter --> 1.6 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

p = A/R_H --> 25/1.6

Evaluating ... ...

p = 15.625

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

15.625 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

15.625 Meter <-- Wetted Perimeter of Channel

Wetted Perimeter given Hydraulic Mean Depth

Go Wetted Perimeter of Channel = Wetted Surface Area of Channel/Hydraulic Radius of Channel

Hydraulic Radius or Hydraulic Mean Depth

Go Hydraulic Radius of Channel = Wetted Surface Area of Channel/Wetted Perimeter of Channel

Wetted Area given Hydraulic Mean Depth

Go Wetted Surface Area of Channel = Hydraulic Radius of Channel*Wetted Perimeter of Channel

Wetted Area given Hydraulic Depth

Go Wetted Surface Area of Channel = Hydraulic Depth*Top Width

Top Width given Hydraulic Depth

Go Top Width = Wetted Surface Area of Channel/Hydraulic Depth

Hydraulic Depth

Go Hydraulic Depth = Wetted Surface Area of Channel/Top Width

Wetted Perimeter given Hydraulic Mean Depth Formula

Wetted Perimeter of Channel = Wetted Surface Area of Channel/Hydraulic Radius of Channel
p = A/R_H

What is Wetted Perimeter?

The wetted perimeter is the perimeter of the cross sectional area that is "wet". The length of line of the intersection of channel wetted surface with a cross sectional plane normal to the flow direction. Wikipedia
