- Q3:- Design an overflow spillway section for a design discharge of 4820 m³/s. The upstream water surface level is at elevation 128m and the bed channel elevation is 100m. The spillway having a vertical U/s face with 100m long. Then what is the maximum discharge that can be passed over this spillway without cavitation. 0.50 0.48 0.46 Th CD 0.44 HD 0.42 P 0.40 Q=CD V28 LH2 0.38 1.5 2.0 2.5 P HD 0 0.5 1.0 3.0Find the intensity discharge of vertical overflow spillway which downstream equation is y = 0.05x¹.85 and Cd=2.23. Water is flowing uniformly with flow rate 18.6 m3/s and water depth 1.2 m in a rectangular open channel of width 8 m. A temporary short span bridge is proposed to be constructed across the channel in which bridge embankment is needed at both sides of the channel causing the channel to be constricted under the proposed bridge. (i) Calculate the maximum channel width under the proposed bridge thatwill not cause backwater upstream. (ii) If the channel width under the proposed bridge is 4 m due to theunvoidable problem condition, calculate the expected flow depth underthe bridge, at just upstream and at just downstream of the bridge.(iii) If the water depth just upstream of the proposed bridge is limited to be0.2 m higher than the normal depth, calculate the channel width underthe bridge.
- A rectangular channel has a width of 2.0 m and carries a flow of 3.0 cms. If the depth of flow at a section is 0.35 m, calculate 1) Specific energy at that section, 2) flow depth alternative to the existing depth, 3) Froude number at the alternative depth, and 4) critical depth. Ans: (hint: consider C.E and S.E.)Water Resources Engineering: For a trapezoidal channel with a side-slope of 5:3 (horizontal: vertical), with a bottom width of 0.5 ft, and carrying a flow of 0.9 cfs, determine, (a) critical depth, and (b) minimum specific energy14. The following are the measurements at a bridge site, during floods. Compute the maximum flood discharge at bridge site: 284 m Width of natural water way 227 m 0.95 Lineal water way under the bridge For rounded entry take Cas Depth upstream of bridge Depth downstream of bridge 4.80 m 3.00 m
