Textbook Question
Chapter 10, Problem 10.69P
Given is the flow of a channel of large width b under a sluice gate, as in Fig. Pl0.69. Assuming frictionless steady flow with negligible upstream kinetic energy, derive a formula for the dimensionless flow ratio (ZAvj/rg) as a function of the ratio y2/yi. Show by differentiation that the maximum flow rate occurs at v2 = 2v,/3.
