Question

11.24 Calculate the dimensions of a launder around the periphery of a 10.0 m-radius sedimentation basin. A critical flow condition exists at the outlet end of the launder. The design flow for this basin is 5000 m3/d. Assume that the channel width is 300 mm and that the flow will divide equally around the two halves of the basin. The launder is made with smooth concrete.
