20. A trapezoidal canal, 6m at the bottom and having side slopes 2:1 carries water to a depth of 40cm and mean velocity of 0.60 m/s. what length of a rectangular contracted weir 85cm high should be placed in the middle of the canal if the depth of water upstream is to be 1.20m? Given: Find: L =? W.G. H d=1.20m P = 0.85 do= 0.40 m H = 1-20 0-85 H = 6.35 original ws 2,4m Solution: L' = 4.28 m 6m = ½ (6 + 7.6) (0.4) (0.6) = 1.63m3/s Q = 1.84 L'H3/2 1.63 = 1.84 L' (0.35) 3/2 Qo = AoVo *aem- L = 4.28 +0.20(0.35) L = 4.35m
