After solving for the roughness coefficient, review the Average
Roughness
value in the Confirmation Statistics section of the
Quantity Coefficient Generator. If you are satisfied with the
results, Store the new coefficient. If you are not satisfied with the
results, you can generate Bestfit Roughness and Bestfit Slope
values. Refer to Generating Bestfit Coefficients on page 4-21, for
more information.

Solving for an Unknown Slope

If you know the pipe roughness, the Quantity Coefficient
Generator
can solve for the unknown slope. Perform the following
steps to solve for an unknown slope:

Set
Button

1. Select the Set toolbar button to display the Set All dialog.

Set all dialog

2. Select the Roughness radio button.

3. Enter the known roughness value to the dialog.

4. Select OK to exit the dialog.

The Quantity Coefficient Generator calculates slope values for
each of the confirmations.

After solving for the slope coefficient, review the Average Slope
value in the Confirmation Statistics section of the Quantity
Coefficient Generator
. If you are satisfied with the results, Store
the new coefficient. If you are not satisfied with the results, you can
generate Bestfit Roughness and Bestfit Slope values. Refer to
Generating Bestfit Coefficients on page 4-21, for more information.
