    open channel flow velocity calculator

    Determine open channel flow rate, velocity, slope, and hydraulic radius. It is suitable for civil and hydraulic works. Open channel flow: This type of flow is the flow of liquid with a free surface under atmospheric pressure, e.g., rivers and canals. The flow velocity and discharge in such channels are usually estimated in terms of the Manning equation based on the channel slope, its roughness, and the hydraulic radius among others. This calculator provides a fast and approximate calculation of the flow rate and velocity so that successful hydraulic design and water management could be developed.

    What is the Open Channel Flow?

    Open Channel Flow Calculator calculates the velocity and flow of water in open channels, i.e., rivers, canals, and irrigation channels. This tool uses the hydraulic principle, such as the Manning formula, to enable hydrologists and engineers to calculate discharge by channel gradient or slope, channel roughness, and cross-section.
