Discharge of Channel
Discharge of Channel is the rate of flow of a liquid.
Symbol: Q
Measurement: Volumetric Flow RateUnit: m³/s
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Cross-Sectional Area of Channel
Cross-Sectional Area of Channel is the area of a two-dimensional shape that is obtained when a three-dimensional shape is sliced perpendicular to some specified axis at a point.
Symbol: Acs
Measurement: AreaUnit:
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Hydraulic Radius of Channel
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.
Symbol: RH
