单词 Manning equation
释义
Manning equation

Geology and Earth Sciences
  • An equation that relates the velocity (V) of water flowing through a stream to the hydraulic radius of the stream (R), its slope (s), and an estimate of its bed roughness (n). V = (Rs½)/n. The equation was developed by the Irish engineer Robert Manning (1816–97) and its first version appeared in 1891 in Manning’s paper ‘On the flow of water in open channels and pipes’ (Transactions of the Institution of Civil Engineers of Ireland).

  • Also known as the Mark–Manning formula, the Gauckler–Manning formula, or the Gauckler–Manning–Strickler formula, this is an empirical formula estimating open channel flow, or free-surface flow driven by gravity:

    V=knRh2/3S1/2
    where V is the cross-sectional average velocity (L/T; ft/s, m/s); k is a conversion factor of (Length1/3/Time), 1 m1/3/s for SI, or 1.4859 ft1/3/s U.S. customary units, if required. (Note: (1 m)1/3/s = (3.2808399 ft) 1/3/s = 1.4859 ft1/3/s); n is the Manning coefficient, and is unitless; Rh is the hydraulic radius (L; ft, m); and S is the slope of the water surface or the linear hydraulic head loss (L/L) (S = hf/L).
