(b) A vertical sluice gate with an opening of 0.67 m produces a downstream jet with a depth of 0.4 m when installed along a rectangular channel, 0.5 m wide, conveying a steady discharge of 20 m3/sec. It is assumed that the flow downstream of the gate eventually returns to a uniform flow depth of 2.5 m. (1) Calculate the energy-head loss in the jump. (ii) What are the conjugate depths of this hydraulic jump (initial and sequent depths).

Question
(b) A vertical sluice gate with an opening of
0.67 m produces a downstream jet with a
depth of 0.4 m when installed along a
rectangular channel, 0.5 m wide, conveying a
steady discharge of 20 m3/sec. It is assumed
that the flow downstream of the gate
eventually returns to a uniform flow depth of
2.5 m.
(i) Calculate the energy-head loss in the jump.
(ii) What are the conjugate depths of this
hydraulic jump (initial and sequent depths).
(c) Identify and sketch the Gradually Varied
Alow (GVF) profile in three slopes which could
be described as mild, critical, and milder
respectively. The three slopes are in series.
