Error analysis of hydraulic radius evaluation in hydraulic calculation
Hydraulic radius is an important parameter in hydraulic calculation. It is often deemed that hydraulic radius can be replaced by the cross-sectional average water depth when the width to depth ratio (B/H) is greater than a certain value in traditional. Based on the various artificial cross-section and natural ones, value-taking errors of hydraulic radius are studied in this paper. The results show that it is feasible to adopt the average water depth as the hydraulic radius when B/H of rectangular section is larger than 40 or B/H of isosceles triangular section is larger than 12. But for natural river, B/H is different when water level changes and there is no single-valued corresponding relationship between relative error and B/H. Therefore, we advise that hydraulic radius could not be replaced by other variables in hydraulic calculation of natural rivers.
