Example 12 A rectangular channel of 6 m width carries uniform flow at a normal depth of 3m. If the flow is subcritical or supercritical, if it carries a discharge of 60 m/sec? If the channel is smoothly contracted to 3m width, what will be the change in water level between the upstream normal section and the contracted section? Will there be any change in the water depth upstream before and after contraction? If so, by what amount.

This problem refers to the sketch shown in Figure 2. If the discharge in the channel (n = 0.028) is 6 m³/s, the depth y is 1.8 m, and the speed cannot exceed 50 m/min, what is the minimum width b and slope (slope) ) maximum?
A. Design a trapezoidal channel to carry a discharge of 10.5 m^3/s. The bottom slop of the channel is 0.0035. Also the flow depth is half of the channel bottom width. Take roughness coefficient as 0.025 and side slop as 1H to 4V. B. Based on the given information and your results in part A, compute the state of flow
An existing channel is to be enlarged to increase its capacity. The enlarged channel cross-section is shown in Fig. below. The existing channel is of concrete construction with a Manning's (n=0.012), and it carries a maximum discharge of (3 m³/s). The new channel will also be constructed with concrete lining with a Manning's (n = 0.012). If %3D the total discharge after enlargement is (9 m³/s), find the normal depth in the channel. 1.2 m E ala rged Channel 1.2 m Existing Channel
3. Water flows at a rate of 5 m3/s in a rectangular channel width of 10 m. The normal depth of flow in the channel is 5 m. If a sharp crested (suppressed) weir of height 5 m is installed across the channel, determine the new flow depth in the channel for the same flow rate. What would the flow depth be if the rectangular weir were contracted (on both sides) to a width if 7 m? What would the flow depth be if a 7 m wide Cippoletti weir is used?

Q. A hydraulic jump stilling basin, equipped with baffle blocks, is to be tested in laboratory to determine the dissipation characteristics for various flow rates. The maximum prototype discharge will be 220m3/s and the rectangular channel will be 10 m wide. (Assume the channel bed to be horizontal and concrete lined, i.e. smooth.) A 40:1 scale model of the stilling basin is to be built. Discharges ranging between the maximum flow rate and 10% of themaximum flow rate are to be reproduced in the model. 1. What similitude should be used? (Justify your selection.)2. Determine the maximum model discharge required.3. Determine the minimum prototype discharge for which negligible scale effects occur in the model. (Comment on your result.) For one particular inflow condition, the laboratory flow conditions are upstream flow depth of 0.019 m, upstream flow velocity of 2.38 m/s and downstream flow depth of 0.122 m.4. Compute the model force exerted on the baffle blocks. (State the basic…

An existing channel is to be enlarged to increase its capacity. The enlarged channel cross-section is shown in Fig. below. The existing channel is of concrete construction with a Manning's (n= 0.012), and it carries a maximum discharge of (3 m2/s). The new channel will also be constructed with concrete lining with a Manning's (n = 0.012).
