The input variables required for this calculation are the following:
- h/ri—Ratio of roughness element height divided by hydraulic radius taken about the top of the roughness element.
- Height of the roughened section (h)
The following figure shows the flow regimes and variables for an increased resistance energy dissipator implemented in a circular culvert.
Variables from the figure
- L—Length from beginning of one roughness element to the beginning of the next roughness element.
- h—height of roughness element
- Di—diameter of roughened section (opening)
