Assumption: the maximum tractive force on a channel is at its maximum depth This spreadsheet will analyze and design a trapezoidal (blue), parabolic (pink), or triangular (green) cross-section channel based on the tractive force allowable by the channel lining. The program computes the Manning's n and the Design tractive force based on the inputted Allowable tractive force. From the Allowable tractive force, the Maximum permitted depth is determined (C18 or C20). The channel depth is then set equal to the Maximum permitted depth (dmax). This depth is then placed in Manning's equation and the geometric parameter A1.667/W p.667 = X computed. The Goal Seek function is then used to 'set' X to the value in C18 by adjusting the "design parameter" [trapezoidal = b; parabolic = t; triangular = z].
The three 3-column groups below a based on the inputs to the left. Use O18) to the value of "X" in C19, by c (Gray cell 4 rows below dmax).
