Question
Assume you have the channel reach shown that is mild (dn>dc); calculate the upstream and downstream depths of the hydraulic jump (note there is a hydraulic jump because upstream there is a gate controlling the water to below critical. Also determine the length hydraulic jump. The flow rate in the channel is 1200 cfs, the base width is 30 ft and the normal depth is 7 feet.

- 1. Determine the discharge rate through three parallel corrugated metal pipe culverts shown in the sketch below (Use the outlet control). The 48-inch diameter culverts have a Manning, n value of 0.024. The culverts are 80 ft long, laid on a slope of 0.04, and have a projecting inlet and outlet. The culvert inlet bottom elevation is 302 ft with a head water elevation of 308.2 ft and a tailwater elevation of 302 ft. Use Ke = 0.8, Ko = 1.0. What is the discharge through the culvert (Use inlet control) with C₁ = 0.62.

- A rectangular channel is 4 m wide, and it reduces to 2 m through a hydraulic structure. Assuring the transition to be horizontal and the flow to be frictionless determine the water surface elevations upstream of the constriction when the specific energy at the constriction is 6 m. Assume choking occurs, hence critical flow equations are applicable. Note: Hand written solution is not allowed.arrow_forwardPLEASE SOLVE PARTS (E) AND (F)arrow_forwardGiven The channel shown in the figure has a surface of float-finished concrete and is laid on a slope that falls 0.27 m per 100 m of length.
