Fluid Mechanics, Chapter 10, Problem 10.6CP

Given:

b=8ft, H=3ft, y1=12ft, g=32.2ft/s2.

Concept Used:

Annuity problem requires the use of the formula as follows:

Q=CdHb2gy1

Cd=0.611+0.61(H1y1)

Here,

Acceleration gravity =g, height =H, width =b.

Calculation:

As per the given problem:

b=8ft, H=3ft

Annuity problem requires the use of this formula:

Cd=0.611+0.61(H1y1)

Substitute these values in the formula

Cd=0.611+0.61(3ft12ft)=0.568

Cd=0.568

Annuity problem requires the use of this formula:

Cd=0.568, b=8ft, H=3ft, y1=12ft, g=32.2ft/s2

Q=CdHb2gy1

Substitute these values in the formula:

Q=(0.568)(3ft)(8ft)2(32.2ft/s2)(12ft)=379ft3/s

Q=379ft3/s

Conclusion:

The flow rate follows from the sluice gate correlation Q=379ft3/s..
