Q4] A triangular channel of apex angle 90° and a rectangular channel of the same material have the same bed slope. If the rectangular channel has the depth of flow equal to the width of the channel and if the flow areas in both the channels are the same, find the ratio of discharges in the rectangular and triangular channels respectively.
A diversion gate backs up flow in a 5-ft wide rectangular irrigation channel (S0 = 0.001, n = 0.015). The discharge in the channel is 50 cfs. If the depth of flow at the gate is 3.5 ft, determine the channel and flow classification (e.g., M-2, S-1, etc.) upstream of the gate and explain your supporting logic. Then determine the water surface profile by finding the depth of flow at distances of 100ft, 300ft, and 600ft upstream of the gate. Use a spreadsheet or appropriate computer software to perform the computations.

Above this elevation, the storage and outflow from the reservoir can be expressed as Storage: Outflow: where $=36000 - 18000 y (m²) Q=10y (m³/s) y = height of the reservoir level above the spillway crest in m. Route an inflow flood hydrograph which can be approximated by a triangle as I=0 at 1=0 h I-30 m³/s at 1 6 h (peak flow) I=0 at 1 26 h (end of inflow). Assume the reservoir elevation as 200.00 m at t=0 h. Use a time step of 2 h.

The depth of flow at a gaging station is observed to be 1.00 m. Answer the following questions: (a) What is the normal depth of flow in the channel? (b) What is the critical depth of flow in the channel? (c) Classify the slope of the channel and the water sur- face profile at the gaging station.
, in two columns, and box your final answer. 1. A concrete channel, rectangular in shape, is laid on a channel bed of slope 0.0010. At an upstreampoint, the depth of water is 1.5 m and 300 meters away, at a downstream point, the depth of flow becomes 1.17 m. If the channel is 4.5 m wide, and has the roughness coefficient of 0.013, find the approximate flow rate.
Determine the discharge passing through the cross-section of the compound channel. The channel bed slope for the whole channel is J0 = 0.008. (n1 = 0.02; n2 = 0.03; n3 = 0.04)
