A long rectangular concrete channel (b = 10 ft, n = 0.015) carries 400 cfs. There is a grade break in the channel; the slope upstream of the grade break is 0.02 and the slope downstream of the grade break is 0.002. The following equations are valid for a rectangular channel: • DC = [(Q2)/(g*b2)]1/3 • y2 = 0.5*y1*[(1+8NFr12)1/2 -1] (for hydraulic jump) • NFr = v/(g*y)1/2 a) Use calculations to classify each section of the channel (steep, mild, horizontal,...
