rapezoidal irrigation canal has a bottom width of 2m and a flow depth of 0.9m. The sides have a ratio of 3 horizontal to 2 vertical. The channel bed has a slope of 0.001. If the Manning's Roughness Coefficient is 0.025, calculate the volumetric flowrate through the open channel. If the canal will serve a clay-loam rice land that demands 3L/s for every hectare, what is the total land area that can be supplied by the canal.

Open Channel Flow

Open channel flow is a branch of fluid mechanics. It deals with the flow of fluid in an open conduit or free surface. In an open channel flow, gravity induces the flow of water whose surface is open to the air. This flow is free-falling rather than confined in rigid body conduits. The open channel flow depends upon two parameters that are the cross-section of the conduit and the velocity profile. Practical examples of open channel flow are streams, rivers, canals, and other drainage systems.In open channel flow, the cross-sectional area of at least one of the sides is exposed to air, and the surface of water faces atmospheric pressure. This flow is also known as free gravity flow. The cross-sectional area of the conduit can be either man-made or a natural channel. For instance, the flow in rivers and streams are natural conduits, and the flow in a canal and sanitary systems are man-made or engineered channels.
