The engineer need to construct a Parshall Flume into 1.5m in wide rectangular channel to a specific discharge. The crest height of the flume must be at 0.25 above the bed of channel and the tailwater must not exceed 0.85m above the bed of channel at D/S. Give a suitable size of the flume to achieve the above hydraulic and geometric conditions and indicate the situation of flow through the flume.
