Output description

The general output tables are the same as those generated in the normal depth

calculations and are described in that section. The following output is from Test

8A. The calculations being made are stated, and then the results of the inflowing

sediment concentration calculations are listed. The rest of the parameters used

for the stable channel dimension calculations are listed. Table 4-1 provides the

results of these calculations. Note that included in this output, at the end of the

file, is a key to the regime abbreviations in the right-most column. Also notice

that the line starting "Table 4-1" also lists the discharge, concentration and d50. If

gravel bed calculations had been made, as for Test 8D, the statement

USING MEYER-PETER-MULLER & LIMERINOS EQUATIONS

would have appeared on the line after

CALCULATE STABLE CHANNEL DIMENSIONS.

That statement in the output is the only one that flags that output file as having

used the gravel bed calculations.
