According to Kennedy’s silt theory, the critical velocity ratio (Vo) in a canal is proportional to flow depth (D) raised to the power:
A0.50
B0.64
C1.00
D1.76
Explanation
Kennedy’s empirical formula for critical non-silting non-scouring velocity is Vo = 0.55 * m * D^0.64, where m is CVR and D is depth of flow.
