Abstract
Through the Rough Model Method (RMM) an explicit calculation is proposed to solve the complex problem of the design of a pressurized trapezoidal shaped conduit characterized by three linear dimensions. Firstly, the method is applied to a rough model of the same shape in order to establish the equations governing its geometric and hydraulic characteristics. These equations are then secondly used to easily deduce the required linear dimensions of the current conduit by introducing a non-dimensional correction factor. The application of the obtained relationships requires only a strict minimum of data. All relationships provided in this article are applicable to the entire domain of the turbulent flow. Practical examples are taken to enable the hydraulic engineer to better understanding the advocated method and to observe the facility with which design of such a geometric profile can be performed.
