B_rect = A_rect/D_f
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Width of Section of Rect Channel - (Measured in Meter) - Width of Section of Rect Channel is the width of the rectangular cross-section of the beam parallel to the axis in consideration.
Wetted Surface Area of Rectangle - (Measured in Square Meter) - Wetted Surface Area of Rectangle [length^2] is the total area of outer surface in contact with the surrounding water.
Depth of Flow of Channel - (Measured in Meter) - Depth of Flow of Channel 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

Wetted Surface Area of Rectangle: 54.08 Square Meter --> 54.08 Square Meter No Conversion Required
Depth of Flow of Channel: 5.2 Meter --> 5.2 Meter No Conversion Required
