==States of flow==

The behavior of open -channel flow is governed by the effects of [[viscosity]] and gravity relative to the [[inertia|inertial]] forces of the flow. [[Surface tension]] has a minor contribution, but does not play a significant enough role in most circumstances to be a governing factor.

Depending on the effect of viscosity relative to inertia, as represented by the [[Reynolds number]], the flow can be either [[laminar flow|laminar]], [[turbulent flow|turbulent]], or [[Laminar–turbulent transition|transitional]].
