Calculate the discharge for a flow depth of 0.85 m in a trapezoidal open channel with bottom width 1 m and side slopes of 1 vertical: 2 horizontals. The bed slope is 0.5 m/ 100 m and Manning's n value is 0.035. The flow from part (a) enters a 1.2 m diameter stormwater sewer laid at the same grade as the bed of the open channel, for which the pipe-flow chart, Appendix 2 applies. Use Appendix 3 to obtain the depth of uniform flow in the sewer and its mean velocity. Show all workings and calculations.

Calculate the discharge for a flow depth of 0.85 m in a trapezoidal open
channel with bottom width 1 m and side slopes of 1 vertical: 2 horizontals. The
bed slope is 0.5 m/ 100 m and Manning's n value is 0.035.
The flow from part (a) enters a 1.2 m diameter stormwater sewer laid at the same
grade as the bed of the open channel, for which the pipe-flow chart, Appendix 2
applies.
Use Appendix 3 to obtain the depth of uniform flow in the sewer and its mean
velocity. Show all workings and calculations.
