An experiment on the hydraulic jump phenomenon was conducted on the laboratory flume (rectangular channel) with a width of 0.5 m. A sluice gate is used to control the upstream depth of the jump, a tail gate to control the downstream depth and a suppressed rectangular weir is installed at the end of the channel to measure the discharge. The following data were obtained in the experiment: Sluice gate opening (upstream conjugate depth) = 10.8 cm • Downstream conjugate depth of the jump = 28 cm • Height of water above the crest of weir = 25 cm a. Calculate the discharge in the channel b. Determine the coefficient of discharge of the weir c. Compute the energy lost in the jump

Q2. A pumping tests are carried out using testing well (pumping well for testing only) and two observational wells. The observation wells were installed at 10 and 30.5 m, respectively, from the testing well. In both wells, the initial piezometric head was 36.2 m. The pumping proceeded at a rate of 0.19 m³/s. After few days the piezometric head stabilized at 30.7 m and 32.9 m in the first and second observational wells, respectively. Determine: a. Transmissivity of the aquifer. b. The well radius of influence. c. The maximum drawdown if the well radius is 0.47 m.
