Water is flowing in Four side-by-side pipes. The discharge through each pipe is 1.2 m³/sec and the water depth in each pipe is 0.609D. The Manning's n and the bed slope of each pipe are 0.016 and (1:1000), respectively. After the development, the total discharge is expected to increase by 13%, and the engineers have decided to replace the Four pipes by a trapezoidal channel. The new channel with a non- cohesive material having a particle size of 0.61 mm with the same bed slope of the pipes. Assume the channel bed width is twice the water depth, and the side angle of the channel is 60°. 1- Determine the diameter of the pipes. 2- Design the cross section of the new channel and what are your comments and suggestions about the hydraulic flow in the designed channel? 3- If a hump is placed in the bottom of the designed channel, Estimate the hump height which will cause the crest flow to be critical.
