The Flow of Water in Small Channels, After Ganguillet and Kutter, with Kutter's Diagram Modified, and Graphical Tables with Special Reference to Sewer Calculations
One of the most interesting problems in the science of hydraulics has always been that of obtaining a correct mathematical expression for the value of the mean velocity in a stream of water. Much thought, labor and money have been expended in the search for a general formula which should give reliable results. Until recently all efforts had failed to provide any that could be depended upon, beyond the conditions under which the observations for its deduction were made. One would be accurate only for pipes, and another only for canals in earth, still another only for large rivers with very light gradients, and so on. In the year 1869, Ganguillet and Kutter succeded, by an ingenious synthesis, in developing a new formula from the many existing reliable measurements, which is applicable under all conditions, while being at least as correct as any of the preceding ones in the cases to which they are limited.
