Section 4: Soil and Water Conservation Engineering

Open Channel Flow

Subtopic: Open Channel Flow

Question Statement:

In open channel flow, the Chezy coefficient $C$ and Manning's roughness coefficient $n$ are interrelated via hydraulic radius $R$ as:

Options:

  • (A) $C = \frac{1}{n} R^{1/6}$
  • (B) $C = \frac{1}{n} R^{2/3}$
  • (C) $C = n R^{1/6}$
  • (D) $C = \frac{1}{n} R^{1/2}$

Answer Key:

A

Step-by-Step Solution & Explanation

Equating Chezy's $v = C \sqrt{RS}$ with Manning's $v = \frac{1}{n} R^{2/3} S^{1/2}$ gives $C = \frac{1}{n} R^{1/6}$.
