Highway Drainage

Highway drainage is the process of extracting and regulating the excess surface water on the pavement by giving the desired slope. The construction of a highway drain helps to divert the water present on the surface, and sub-grade by the means of slope. Highway drainage systems are a necessary part of smooth functioning of traffic, since the highway drainage systems provide proper disposal of unwanted substances from the highways.

The rectangular channel is 3 m wide and caries a flow of 10 m3/s. At the 3.5 m drop, water is at the critical depth. Downstream of the drop, the depth = 2 m after the hydraulic jump. The head loss due to the jump = 2 m. (a) What is the depth of water before the jump? Note that the depth you calculate must be in the supercritical range. (b) What is the head loss due to the 2.5 m drop?

A 170-m long pipeline, composed of two pipes connected in series, discharges freely at a point 40 m below the water level at intake. The pipe projects into the reservoir. The first 100 m is 25 cm in diameter, and the remaining 70 m is 15 cm in diameter. Assuming that f=0.05 for both pipes, (a) find the rate of flow. If the junction of the two sizes of pipe is 25 m below the intake water-surface level, find the pressure head just above C and just below C, where C denotes the point of junction. Assume a sudden contraction at C. Use k=0.8 for entrance, 0.24 for sudden contraction and 1.0 for exit. I will downvote the incorrect solution
Two reservoirs are connected by a pipeline which is 150 mm in diameter for the first 6 m and 225 mm in diameter for the remaining 18 m. The entrance and exit are sharp, and the change of section is sudden. The water surface in the upper reservoir is 6 m above that in the lower. Tabulate the losses of head which occur and calculate the rate of flow in m3/s. Friction coefficient f is 0.01 for both pipes.
