A spillway 45 m long having discharge coefficient 1.8 permits a maximum discharge of 90 m³/s from a storage resevoir. It is proposed to replace the spillway by a siphon spillway of section 0.75 mx 1.5 m with operating head 8 m and discharge coefficient 0.64. Find the number of siphons required and the amount of extra water sored, if the siphons have a primig depth of 0.15 m; the average surface area of the reservoir being 5 x 105 m².

A sharp-crested triangular weir with a notch angle of 80° is used to measure the discharge rate of water from a large lake into a spillway. If a weir with half the notch angle (? = 40°) is used instead, determine the percent reduction in the flow rate. Assume the water depth in the lake and the weir discharge coefficient remain unchanged.
