A rectangular channel 3 m wide carries 4m3/s of water at a depth of 1.5m. if an obstruction 15 cm high is placed across the channel, calculate the elevation of the water surface over the obstruction.
2. A 2.5 m wide rectangular channel conveys m wide rectangular channel conveys water at a normal depth of 2 m. In a part of the channel, the channel width is expanded to 5 m. The local energy loss due to this expansion is about 10% of the upstream velocity head. If the channel slope is 0.03% and the Manning roughness coefficient is about 0.012, calculate the water depth over this transition and show the situation with a simple sketch.
A 8 m wide rectangular channel is carrying water at 180 m3/s. The channel is constructed of concrete (Manning's N = 0.013) and is laid at a slope of 0.28 %. Find the normal depth
9) A rectangular channel 8 feet wide carries 2.5 ft/s of water at a depth of 3.2 feet. a) What are the most efficient attributes (d, A, P, and R) of the channel? b) If a 1-foot wide pier is placed in the middle of the channel, find the elevation of the water surface at the pier. What is the minimum width of the constriction that will not cause a rise in the upstream water surface?
A 8-m wide rectangular channel carries a flow of 96 m3/s at a flow depth of 4 m. The channel width is constricted to 6 m in a length of 5 m. Assuming the channel transition has straight and vertical sides, and there are no losses, plot the water-surface profile in the transition. Hint: you should find the water depth when the channel width is 8 m, 7.5 m, 7 m, 6.5 m, and 6 m.
A rectangular river channel 5.0m wide carries water at a depth of 1.2m. The slope of the channel is 1 in 400. The channel has a bed covered with stones. Using the n value of 0.03(s/m1/3) calculate the discharge in the channel using Manning’s equation
Water flows through a rectangular channel 7.3 meter wide, at a rate of 3.1 m^3/s. with a depth of 3 meters. The channel is lined with rough concrete and has a slope of 0.075 %. Calculate the critical depth, and normal depth and classify the slope. Manning's number for the channel is 0.014.
9) A rectangular channel 8 feet wide carries 2.5 ft/s of water at a depth of 3.2 feet. What are the most efficient attributes (d, A, P, and R) of the channel?
Problem 6 (20 points) A 1-m wide rectangular channel carries a discharge of 2.1 m'/s. A hydraulic jump is formed in the channel, after which the depth of flow is found to be 2.1 m. (a) Determine the depth yi and the Froude number F, before the jump. (b) Find the critical depth ye (c) Determine the power dissipated within the jump.
