Figure shows a horizontal flow of water through asluice gate, a hydraulic jump, and over a 6-ft sharp-crestedweir. Channel, gate, jump, and weir are all 8 ft wide unfinishedconcrete. Determine (a) the flow rate, (b) the normaldepth, (c) y2, (d ) y3, and (e) y4.
Consider a double-rectangular flow channel composed of an outer rectangular channel and an inner rectangular channel. The width and height (or gap) of the inner rectangular channel are 60 and 20 mm, respectively, whereas the width and height of the outer rectangular channel are 100 and 40 mm, respectively. Oil and water, respectively, flow through the inner and outer rectangular channels, and the oil and water flow direction is the same. The flow rates of the oil and water are 0.2 and 0.3 kg/s, respectively. The important information for the thermal analysis is given below. The wall thermal resistance is 0.01 (m²-K)/W. If the flow is turbulent, the Dittus-Boelter correlation should be used for estimating the heat transfer coefficient. If the flow is laminar, the Nusselt numbers for water and oil are given as 4.01 and 5.63, respectively. The oil and water enter at temperatures of 100 and 30 °C, respectively.
