Chezy Formula Versus Theory and Common Sense

by Witold Gustaw Strupczewski, Inst of Geophysics, Warsaw, Poland,



Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Hydraulic Engineering

Abstract:

Using the theoretical concepts of the uniform flow formula and the inverse solution of the Chezy equation it is shown that a channel shape may have considerable influence on the value of the Manning roughness coefficient.
