- the flow rate is 1.2 m3/s per meter of channel width. (a) Compute the velocity and water depth at the top of the budge (hmax= 0.1 m). Characterize the flow there. (b) Rework the problem for a flow rate three times as large.arrow_forward4.58. A trapezoidal canal has a longitudinal slope of 1%, side slopes of 3:1 (H:V), a bottom width of 3.00 m, a Man- ning's n of 0.015, and carries a flow of 20 m³/s. The depth of flow at a gaging station is observed to be 1.00 m. Answer the following questions: (a) What is the normal depth of flow in the channel? (b) What is the critical depth of flow in the channel? (c) Classify the slope of the channel and the water sur- face profile at the gaging station.arrow_forwardDetermine the velocity of flow after hydraulic jump through a 1 m wide channel if the velocity of flow before jump was 2 m/s and the depth was 0.2 m.arrow_forward
- For #5-7, assume there is a creek with a width of 4.6 m, depth of 23 cm, slope of 0.001 m/m, and discharge of 0.13 m³/s. 5. Assuming a rectangular cross section, what is the hydraulic radius of the creek to the nearest cm? 6. What is the average flow velocity to the nearest cm/s? 7. And what is the channel's Manning's roughness coefficient (using SI units) to the nearest hundredth?arrow_forwardm5arrow_forward5) In a triangular channel, the velocity along the centre line at a depth of 0.2 m and 0.8 m is 0.7 m/s and 0.5 m/s, respectively. The triangular channel has dimension of 4 m by 1 m. Calculate the discharge in the channel.arrow_forward
- 4.61. Water flows at 11 m³/s in a rectangular channel of width 5 m. The slope of the channel is 0.1% and the Manning roughness coefficient is equal to 0.035. If the depth of flow at a selected section is 2 m, calculate the upstream depths at 20 m intervals along the channel until the depth of flow is within 5% of the uniform flow depth.arrow_forwardA rectangular concrete channel (n = 0.014) has a bottom width of 5.05 m and a longitudinal slope of 0.002. Compute the discharge rate and velocity for a water depth of 2.34 m. Compute normal depth, critical depth, and critical slope for a discharge of 6.67 m³/s.arrow_forward3. Water flows at a rate of 5 m3/s in a rectangular channel width of 10 m. The normal depth of flow in the channel is 5 m. If a sharp crested (suppressed) weir of height 5 m is installed across the channel, determine the new flow depth in the channel for the same flow rate. What would the flow depth be if the rectangular weir were contracted (on both sides) to a width if 7 m? What would the flow depth be if a 7 m wide Cippoletti weir is used?arrow_forward
