A rectangular concrete channel with n=0.013 is to be constructed on 0.5% slope:

1. Design for a flow rate of Q=18 m^3/s.

2. A 30 cm high, 5 m long broad crested weir is placed in the channel. Calculate the depth upstream y1 and downstream y2 from the weir then get the head loss due to the hydraulic jump

Water flows in a rectangular concrete channel that is 10 m wide and has a slope...
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...

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,...

6. An overflow spillway flows into a mild channel, producing a hydraulic jump. The channel is rectangular, with Q = 100 ft3/s, bottom width b = 20 ft, and Manning's n = 0.015. The flow depth at the toe of the spillway is 0.4 ft and the approximate slope at the toe of the spillway is 0.1. The slope of the [mild] downstream channel, which functions as a stilling basin, is 0.0001. Calculate:  the critical depth,  the length...

The 1.5 cm wide rectangular channel in the laboratory was used to create a hydraulic jump; the following data were collected: y1 = 1.25 ± 0.05 cm; y2 = 5.6 ± 0.1 cm; Q = 8 liters/30 sec Assume the water temperature was 20°C. (Note the mixed units above – please present your solutions in si units) (a) Use the theoretical equation to predict the conjugate depth ratio, y2/y1, based on the initial depth, y1. Compare the value to the...

A 10-m wide, rectangular, concrete-lined canal (n=0.013) has a bottom slope of 0.01 and a constant-level lake at the upstream end. The steep canal carries a flow of is 250 m3/s and the critical and normal depths are 4m and 2.37m, respectively. The water level in the lake is 6.0 m above the bottom of the canal at the entrance. If the entrance losses are negligible, using Direct Step Method determine; i. The flow depth 812 m downstream of the...

A 10 ft high sharp crested weir with cd = 0.63 was constructed across the same channel given in previous question. For the above flow condition, what is the expected depth weir? (I am referring to the last question in HW 1: In a channel, flow is taking place with a velocity of 1.2 ft/s with a normal flow depth of 8.5 ft. The channel is a rectangular section with a width of 20 ft. Find the following: Find Q...
