When a supercritical stream enters a mild-sloped (M) channel section, the type of flow profile would become _________.

G1 and G2 are the slopes of the approach and departure grades of a vertical curve, respectively. Given |G1| < |G2| and |G1| ≠ |G2| ≠ 0 Statement ...

A hydraulic jump takes place in a 6 in wide rectangular channel at a point where the upstream depth is 0.5 m (just before the jump). If the discharge ...

Water is flowing in a horizontal, frictionless, rectangular channel. A smooth hump is built on the channel floor at a section and its height is gradua...

A rectangular channel with Gradually Varied Flow (GVF) has a changing bed slope. If the change is from a steeper slope to a steep slope, the resulting...

Depth of water flowing in a 3 m wide rectangular channel is 2 m. The channel carries a discharge of 12 m3/s. Take g = 9.8 m/s2. The bed width (in m) a...

The critical flow condition in a channel is given by _______. [Note: 𝛼 – kinetic energy correction factor; 𝑄 – discharge; Ac – cross-sectional area...

The cross-section of a small river is sub-divided into seven segments of width 1.5 m each. The average depth, and velocity at different depths were me...

A very wide rectangular channel carries a discharge (Q) of 70 m3/s per meter width. Its bed slope changes from 0.0001 to 0.0009 at a point P, as shown...

A hydraulic jump occurs in a 1.0 m wide horizontal, frictionless, rectangular channel, with a pre-jump depth of 0.2 m and a post-jump depth of 1.0 m. ...
