By Manning's formula for mean flow velocity, one may determine the dimensions of a rectangular open channel to convey a given discharge Q.

¡à Variables description

- Design discharge : Q (m^3/s)
- Water depth : h (m)
- Channel breadth : b (m)
- Channel slope (or energy gradient) : S
- Manning's roughness coefficient : n
- Cross-sectional area (flow area) : A(m^2)
- Wetted perimeter : P (m)
- Hydraulic radius : R (m)
- Calculated discharge : Qc (m^3/s)

¢¹ Input data



First, assuming the water depth h(m), calculate the flow area A (m^2).



The hydraulic radius is R = A/P = b*h / (b+2h),



Applying the Manning's formula,



Calculated discharge : Qc = A*V,


By increasing or decreasing  the water depth h in the equation no.2, iterate the calculation until the calculated discharge Qc becomes equal to the design discharge Q.
