A 7-m-high spillway is placed across a rectangular channel as a means of measuring discharge. If the actual head on the spillway crest is 0.92 m and the Francis C value is 3.32,
a. What is the specific discharge in the channel?
b. Ignoring losses across the spillway, what is the flow depth at the toe?

Water approaches a sharp-crested rectangular weir through a channel that is 2 m wide. The depth of flow in the channel is 1 m. The weir crest is 0.6 m above the base of the channel and has a crest width of 0.8 m. It is located in the centre of the channel. Assuming a coefficient of discharge of 0.61, and ignoring side contractions, determine the discharge over the weir: a) Assuming the approach velocity is zero b) Including the...

Water flows in a rectangular concrete channel that is 10 m wide and has a slope of 0.005. The depth of the uniform flow in the channel (y1) is 450 mm and the discharge per width of the water is 2.2 m2/s. The downstream channel is smooth, and a hydraulic jump is forced to form in the channel by installing a sill. Calculate: (i) the depth and velocity of the water downstream of the hydraulic jump; (ii) the difference in...
