Water flows in a horizontal, rectangular channel initially 10 feet wide and 2 feet deep. The initial velocity is 6 ft/s. This flow encounters downstream a simultaneous downward step and constriction. No energy losses are associated with these changes in channel configuration. a. What is the specific discharge, q: i. Upstream (for w= 10 feet)? ii. Downstream (for w = 6 feet)? b. What specific energy, E, is associated with the flow as initially specified (at the upstream location)? c. What is the minimum energy needed to pass the full discharge at the downstream location? d. What is the height (Az) of the smallest downward step necessary for the upstream flow conditions to remain as specified?
If discharge in a rectangular channel is found to be 20 m³/s and energy drop of 0.25 m occur over 400 m, then conveyance of channel is (in m³/s).
For a constant specific energy of 6.60 ft in a rectangular channel 10 ft wide, determine (a) the critical depth (ft), (b) the critical velocity (ft/s), (c) the channel bed slope to maintain critical depth, and (d) the maximum flow (cfs) that may occur. Use n = 0.011.
TRUE or FALSE 1. The wetted perimeter of a closed-conduit flow is lesser than an open- channel flow if the area of the cross-section is the same. 2. The hydraulic diameter of an open-channel flow is greater than a closed- conduit flow if the area of the cross-section is the same. 3. The energy head at the top of an open tank or reservoir is approximately equal to the elevation head alone.
Water is drawn from an intake tower in Lake Ontario through a 3-km long precast reinforced concrete pipeline (Hazen-William’s C = 120) and delivered to the wet well of a low lift pumping station on shore which in turn supplies a water treatment plant. The pumping station is sized to deliver and will be operating at the maximum day flow rate of 2.65 m3/s. (a) If the design water elevation in the wet well is 70 m when the lake level is 74 m above MSL, determine the most economical pipe size for the intake (neglect local losses). (b) Compare the entrance and exit losses to the pipe friction losses to justify the assumption in (a). The entrance and exit loss coefficients can be assumed to be 1. (c) Sketch the hydraulic and energy grade lines. (d) Explain what would happen if the intake pipeline’s capacity was reduced but the pumping station is still operating at the same flow rate.
