+Flow (''Q'') in an open channel, such as a swale, may be calculated using Manning's equation:
<math>Q=VA=\frac{R^{\frac{2}{3}}S^{\frac{1}{2}}}{n}</math>
<math>Q=VA=\frac{R^{\frac{2}{3}}S^{\frac{1}{2}}}{n}</math>
Where:
Where:
<math>R=\frac{A}{P}</math>
<math>R=\frac{A}{P}</math>
+{{Plainlist|1=Where:
+*''Q'' = the flow in the swale (m<sup>3</sup>/s)
+*''A'' = the cross sectional area of the swale (m<sup>2</sup>)
+*''P'' = the wetted perimeter of the swale (m)
+*''S'' = the longitudinal slope (m/m)
+*''n'' = Manning's coefficient (dimensionless)
