A distributary channel having bed width 5.00 m and full supply depth of 1.50 m carries 3.0 m3/s of discharge. A semi-modular pipe outlet in this channel has a command area of 15 ha growing rice with a kor depth 20 cm and kor period of three weeks. Determine the size of the outlet and set it for sub-proportionality with a flexibility of 0.9. Assume the length of the pipe as 3.0 m and friction factor as 0.03. The available diameters of the pipe are 150, 125, 100, and 75 mm. How does this outlet behave if the distributary runs below FSL at 1.0 m depth ?
