Contraction and Expansion Coefficients (Steady Flow)

The user has the ability to view and edit contraction and expansion coefficients for Steady flow hydraulics in a tabular format. This is accomplished by selecting Contraction/Expansion Coefficients (Steady Flow) from the Tables menu of the Geometric Data editor. Once this option is selected, a window will appear as shown in Figure 5-72. The user has the same editing features as described previously for the n values table. See the discussion under Manning's n values, in the previous section, for details on how to edit the data.
