Principles of Seepage

In hydrology, when water flows down in a pore or crack of unsaturated soil due to gravity, the deep layer of soil is called seepage. It is the slow movement of water in the soil layer. Seepage is mainly found near hydraulic structures and is responsible for the stability of earthen-type hydraulic structures.

Can you help me solve this question please? Thank you Salt lake has no outlet i.e., the inlet flow is completely balanced by evaporation. Lake has a volume of 2.5 x 1011 m3 and the concentration of salt in the lake is 52 g/L. Inlet stream to the lake has a concentration of 0.18 g/L and is flowing at a rate of 3.7 x 109 m3/yr. Lake initially had a concentration of 0.18 g/L and the outflow abruptly stopped, how long ago did that occur?

2. You're designing a stilling basin and you need to know the minimum length of that basin and also how much energy loss will be achieved before flow is released into the downstream channel. Given the basin width is 10-feet, the flow rate is 240 CFS, the upstream froude number is found from hydraulic modeling to be 4.0. Solve the following: • Minimum length of the stilling basin. • Energy loss within the stilling basin (Calculate both energy loss in feet and in tons). • The depth of water being released outside of the stilling basin. • The Froude Number being released from the Stilling Basin. • Look at USBR Design of Small Dams and Write a paragraph (4-5 sentences) of the recommended stilling basin you would propose for the hydraulic scenario.
