Q1) Consider a rectangular channel with a constant width b, a) Obtain the equation of water surface profile (dy/dx) as function of Froude number and channel bottom slope in a channel transition assuming that over a short distance Ax, the energy losses can be neglected. b) Using the equation you have obtained, draw the water surface profile if flow is supercritical and if there is a downward step at the channel bed and show your results on the graph of...
(5) Water flows along a trapezoidal channel with base width B=1.5 m, side slope 1:1 (horizontal to vertical) and depth D=0.7 m. It is controlled downstream by a sharp crested weir that has a crest height of H=2.4 m above the channel bed and a crest width equal to that of the base width. Calculate the flow rate in the channel (check any assumptions you make).
Water flows at 10.8(103) t/min through a rectangular channel having a width of 6 ft (Figure 1) Part A Determine the critical depth of the flow. Part C What is the necessary increase in elevation h of the channel bed to create the depth yB = 4.05 ft?
The discharge Q in a rectangular channel is 6m3 /s. The channel width is 3m and flow depth is 2m. (i) The channel width is reduced (no change to bed elevation) to 1.5m at a downstream location. What is the flow depth at the constriction? Determine if choking conditions are present. Explain your answer using of a q-y curve. (ii) The channel width is reduced (no change to bed elevation) to 1.0m at a downstream location. Calculate the upstream water...

(a) What should be the minimum width to which the channel can be contracted smoothly without causing any choking of flow assuming that the bed of the channel is level all through. (b) Compute the critical slope of this new section if n = 0.012. (c) How long should this channel be if there is a drop of 4m. at...
Water flows down a rectangular channel that has a width of 2.2 m, a Manning's n of 0.019 and a slope of 1 in 200. Calculate the discharge in the channel when the depth of flow is 0.5 m, 1.0 m, 2.0 m, and 4.0 m. Plot a graph of depth against discharge and comment on its shape, [10 marks] A wide channel has a Manning's number = 0.021, a longitudinal bed slope of 1:250 and conveys 0.XX m3/s/m of...
Water flows at 11 m3/s in a rectangular channel of width 5 m. The slope of the channel is 0.001 and the Manning roughness coefficient is equal to 0.035. If the depth of flow at a selected section is 2 m, calculate the upstream depth at 500 m from the selected section using the standard step method

Water flows at 4.3m/s in a rectangular channel of width 3 m and depth of flow 1m. If the channel width is decreased by 0.75m and the bottom of the channel is raised by 0.25m, Find the followings: The discharge per unit width before the constriction q m3/s/m Discharge per unit width at the constriction q" = m/s/m Water depth of flow in the constriction y2 =
