Mannings Pipe Capacity

Computes the flow capacity, velocity, flow area, and hydraulic radius of circular drainage pipes using Manning's equation Q = (1/n) * A * R^(2/3) * S^(1/2), supporting both full and partially full pipe flow via the central angle geometry method. Used in stormwater and sewer pipe sizing per HEC-22 and QUDM to verify that pipe capacity meets the design discharge.
