    Chézy formula

    In fluid dynamics, the Chézy formula describes the mean flow velocity of steady, turbulent open channel flow:

    where

    is average velocity [m/s],


    is Chezy's coefficient [m½/s],
    is the hydraulic radius (~ water depth) [m], and
    is the bottom slope [m/m].
    The formula is named afterAntoine de Chézy, the French hydraulics engineer who devised it in 1775.

    Usage with Manning coefficient


    This formula can also be used with Manning's Roughness Coefficient, instead of Chézy's coefficient. Manning derived[1] the
    following relation to C based upon experiments:

    where

    is the Chézy coefficient [m½/s],


    is the hydraulic radius (~ water depth) [m], and
    is Manning's roughness coefficient.
    .[2]
    Unlike the Manning equation, which is empirical, the Chézy equation is derived from hydrodynamics theory
