    What is the hydraulic radius? - ProProfs

    What is the hydraulic radius?

    • It is a term used to describe the shape of a channel. It is the ratio between the length of the wetted perimeter and and the cross-section area.

    • It is the friction with the bed and banks. The turbulence reduces energy.

    • It is the speed at which water flows along a river.

    • Non of these

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 
    The higher the hydraulic radius the lower the amount of water in contact with the bed and banks which means there is less friction and water can move at a higher velocity. - ProProfs

    The higher the hydraulic radius the lower the amount of water in contact with the bed and banks which means there is less friction and water can move at a higher velocity.
