Water flows half-full through a hexagonal channel of bottom width 2 m at a rate of 30 m3/s. Determine (a) the average velocity and (b) whether the flow is subcritical and supercritical
Water is flowing uniformly in a finished-concrete channel of trapezoidal cross section with a bottom width of 0.8 m, trapezoid angle of 50°, and a bottom angle of 0.4°. If the flow depth is measured to be 0.52 m, determine the flow rate of water through the channel.
The flow rate of water flowing in a 5-m-wide channel is to be measured with a sharp-crested triangular weir 0.5 m above the channel bottom with a notch angle of 80°. If the flow depth upstream from the weir is 1.5 m, determine the flow rate of water through the channel. Take the weir discharge coefficient to be 0.60.
