1. What flow can be expected in a 1.2m wide rectangular, cement – lined channel (n = 0.015)
laid on a slope of 4m in 10km, if the water flows 0.6m deep? Use Kutter's C.
2. A trapezoidal canal section having side slope of 2H to 3V has a total depth of 1.5m. For a
most efficient proportion, what is the required bottom width in meters?
3. A rectangular flume 3m wide and 1.5m deep has a carrying capacity of 4.5 m³/s. If the same
material were used for the most efficient trapezoidal section, by how much would the
carrying capacity increase in m3/s?
