The flow rate of water in a 6-m-wide rectangular channel is to be measured using a 1.3-m-high sharp-crested rectangular weir that spans across the channel. If the head above the weir crest is 0.70 m upstream from the weir, determine the flow rate of water.
Water flows in a canal at an average velocity of 6 m/s. Determine if the flow is subcritical or supercritical for flow depths of (a) 0.2 m, (b) 2 m, and (c) 1.63 m.
The specific energy for a 3 m wide channel is to be 3 kg-m/kg. What would be the maximum possible discharge?
