A rectangular channel 6.20 m wide and 1.20 m deep is laid on a uniform slope of 0.003. The roughness coefficient of the channel is 0.013 m.
a. Determine the discharge in the channel in m3/sec.
b. Determine the savings in the lining per meter length of channel if the most efficient rectangular section
is to be used for the same flow and properties.
c. Determine the savings in earth excavation per meter length of channel if the most efficient rectangular
section is to be used for the same flow and properties.

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...

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...

A 5-m wide rectangular channel with two reaches, each with a different slope, conveys 40m3/s of water. The channel slope for the first reach is 0.0005 and then a sudden change to a slope of 0.015 so that critical flow occurs at the transition. Determine the depths of flow at locations 10 m, 20 m and 30 m upstream of the critical depth. The Manning’s n for the channel is 0.015.
