Manning's empirical formula for evaluating the mean velocity for a steady uniform turbulent flow in pressure conduits with circular cross-section and in a wide rectangular open channel, can be theoretically justified by introducing a virtual viscosity or mixing turbulent coefficient, depending on the velocity and the position of a particle according to Boussinesq's hypothesis for the turbulent flow in a pipe. The balance equation yields an ordinary differential equation whose integration yield the distribution of the velocity

Abstract
Manning's empirical formula for evaluating the mean velocity for a steady uniform turbulent flow in pressure conduits with circular cross-section and in a wide rectangular open channel, can be theoretically justified by introducing a virtual viscosity or mixing turbulent coefficient, depending on the velocity and the position of a particle according to Boussinesq's hypothesis for the turbulent flow in a pipe. The balance equation yields an ordinary differential equation whose integration yield the distribution of the velocityFile in questo prodotto:
