Q4. Determine the normal depth (Using the Design Curves and the Trial and Error Methods) and critical depth (Using the Trial and Error Method) in a trapezoidal channel with a bottom width of 40 ft, side slopes of (3H:1V) and a bed slope of 0.002 ft/ft. The Manning's n is 0.025 and the discharge is 3000 cfs. (25 points).
5. Given: Discharge = 400 cfs; upstream bottom width = 12 ft; upstream flow depth = 1 ft, downstream bottom width = 32 ft; length of transition = 100 ft.

1. Numerically solve for the normal depth using either MS-Excel or Matlab. Hint: your spreadsheet for critical depth in HW3 is a good place to start. 14.13 The channel in Problem 14.7 is excavated in smooth rock to a bed slope of 0.2%. Deter- mine the (a) normal depth of flow, (b) critical slope, and (c) state of flow in the channel. 14.7 A trapezoidal channel has a bed width of 3.5...
A trapezoidal channel has a bottom width 10 ft and side slope of 2H:1V. It carries a discharge of 250 cfs at a water depth of 4.8ft. The channel is to pass under a highway and a culvert is proposed for a smooth transition from the channel to the culvert. You are asked to design this transition under the following design criteria: First of all, it is important to keep in mind that the culvert shall not act as a...
