channel efficiency

    0.04 sec.

channel efficiency

Measure of the ability of a river channel to move water and sediment. Channel efficiency can be measured by calculating the channel's hydraulic radius (cross-sectional area/length of bed and bank). The most efficient channels are generally semicircular in cross-section, and it is this shape that water engineers try to create when altering a river channel to reduce the risk of flooding.
