The examples make more sense if you have familiarized yourself with the nchannel, npartfull, and nmetalpipe tables. There are instructions to view the tables, as a .pdf, in the [View-PDF-table-vignette](). \bigskip \bigskip # Load the required packages ```{r} #| warning: false #| message: false #| tidy: true install.load::load_package("iemiscdata", "data.table", "iemisc", "rivr", "units") # load needed packages using the load_package function from the install.load package (it is assumed that you have already installed these packages) ``` \bigskip \bigskip # Example 1 (nchannel) What is the maximum Manning’s n value for a channel that has the following classification: “Natural streams - minor streams (top width at floodstage < 100 ft), Mountain streams, no vegetation in channel, banks usually steep, trees and brush along banks submerged at high stages and bottom: gravels, cobbles, and few boulders?” \bigskip ```{r} #| warning: false #| message: false #| tidy: true # Use grep to find the row number matching the given description # Use nchannel$"Type of Channel and Description" to select the column to search through # Use nchannel[nlocation, 4] to select the row number from nlocation and column 4 # Similar steps are performed for each of these examples # The 1st heading is "Manning's n for Channels" # The 2nd heading is "Natural streams - minor streams (top width at floodstage < 100 ft)" # The 3rd heading is "Mountain streams, no vegetation in channel, banks usually steep, trees and brush along banks submerged at high stages" # The 4th heading is "bottom: gravels, cobbles, and few boulders" data(nchannel, package = "iemiscdata") # locate the row where "Type of Channel and Description" == "bottom: gravels, cobbles, and few boulders" nlocation1 <- nchannel[nchannel$"Type of Channel and Description" %like% "bottom: gravels, cobbles, and few boulders", ] n1 <- nlocation1$"Maximum n" n1 ``` \bigskip \bigskip # Example 2 (npartfull) What is the minimum Manning’s n value for a channel that has the following classification: “Closed Conduits Flowing Partly Full, Wood and Stave?” \bigskip ```{r} #| warning: false #| message: false #| tidy: true # The 1st heading is "Manning's n for Closed Conduits Flowing Partly Full" # The 2nd heading is "Wood" # The 3rd heading is "Stave" data(npartfull, package = "iemiscdata") # locate the row where "Type of Conduit and Description" %like% "Stave" nlocation2 <- npartfull[npartfull$"Type of Conduit and Description" %like% "Stave", ] n2 <- nlocation2$"Minimum n" n2 ``` \bigskip \bigskip # Example 3 (nmetalpipe) What is the Manning’s n value for a channel that has the following classification: “Corrugated Metal Pipe, Corrugations 6x2 inches and 60" diameter?” \bigskip ```{r} #| warning: false #| message: false #| tidy: true # The 1st heading is "Manning's n for Corrugated Metal Pipe" # The 2nd heading is "Corrugations 6x2 inches" # The 3rd heading is "Corrugations 6x2 inches --- 60\"\" diameter" data(nmetalpipe, package = "iemiscdata") # locate the row where "Type of Pipe and Diameter and Corrugation Dimension" %like% "Corrugations 6x2 inches --- 60\"\" diameter" nlocation3 <- nmetalpipe[nmetalpipe$"Type of Pipe and Diameter and Corrugation Dimension" %like% "Corrugations 6x2 inches --- 60\"\" diameter", ] n3 <- nlocation3$"n" n3 ``` \bigskip \bigskip # Example 4 (nchannel) -- From Reference 1 (compute_profile function) Example to compute the “gradually-varied flow profile of a prismatic channel” with these channel conditions used to find Manning’s n (normal): “Natural streams - minor streams (top width at floodstage < 100 ft), Excavated or Dredged Channels, Earth, straight, and uniform, & clean, recently completed.” \bigskip ```{r} #| warning: false #| message: false #| tidy: true # The 1st heading is "Manning's n for Channels" # The 2nd heading is "Natural streams - minor streams (top width at floodstage < 100 ft)" # The 3rd heading is "Excavated or Dredged Channels" # The 4th heading is "Earth, straight, and uniform" # The 5th heading is "clean, recently completed" # Using the data for the M1 profile example in rivr's compute_profile, except for the value of n to find the channel condition # locate the row where "Type of Channel and Description" == "bottom: gravels, cobbles, and few boulders" nlocation4 <- nchannel[nchannel$"Type of Channel and Description" %like% "clean, recently completed", ] n4 <- nlocation4$"Maximum n" n4 compute_profile(0.001, n4, 250, 2.7, 1.486, 32.2, 100, 0, stepdist = 50, totaldist = 3000) ``` \bigskip \bigskip # Example 5 What is the critical y (critical flow depth) for this cross-section (from Example 4)?
