A syphon of diameter 200 mm connects two reservoirs having a difference in elevation of 15 m. The total length of the syphon is 600 m and the summit is 4 m above the water level in the upper reservoir. If the separation takes place at 2.8 m of water absolute, find the maximum length of syphon from upper reservoir to the summit. Take f= .004 and atmospheric pressure = 10.3 m of water.

CALCULATION USING DARCY'S LAW An aquifer system is formed by two horizontal layers. Two piezometers were installed for monitoring, the distance between them is 885m. The upper layer (A) has a thickness of 39m and K = 1.3 x 10-5 m/s and the lower layer (B) has a thickness of 25m and K = 2.7 x 10-6 m/s. THE hydraulic load in the PZA is 60m and in the PZB it is 40m. Calculate the flow and the transmissivity of each layer.

A circular tube of length 500 mm and cross-sectional area 50 cm2 is placed horizontally and filled with soil A of length 200 mm and soil B of length 300 mm. The head difference between the inlet and outlet of tube is 20 cm. The coefficient of permeabilities of soil A and soil B are 2 mm/s and 2.5 mm/s respectively. The discharge taking place through the soil A is cm3/s.

Water flows at 2 m / s in a 3 m wide 2.5 m deep rectangular channel. There is a 1.10 m elevation on the downstream side of the channel as seen in the figure. Above the elevation, the channel widens to 3.75 m as shown in the figure If b2 = 3.75 m, what should be the maximum value of Δz to prevent suffocation? Draw the specific energy depth curve.
