How It Works

Manning's equation: Q = (1/n) A R^(2/3) S^(1/2). Flow rate from channel geometry, roughness, and slope

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Channel geometry — The channel geometry recorded for the patient or scenario being assessed.
  • Roughness — The roughness recorded for the patient or scenario being assessed.
  • Slope — The slope recorded for the patient or scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the manning's discharge result against the clinical thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the channel geometry, roughness, slope for the patient or scenario you are assessing. Manning's equation: Q = (1/n) A R^(2/3) S^(1/2). Flow rate from channel geometry, roughness, and slope. Use the manning's discharge result to inform your clinical assessment.
