Consider uniform flow through an open channel lined with bricks with a Manning coefficient of n = 0.015. If the Manning coefficient doubles (n = 0.030) as a result of some algae growth on surfaces while the flow cross section remains constant, the flow rate will (a) double, (b) decrease by a factor of √2, (c) remain unchanged, (d) decrease by half, or (e) decrease by a factor of 21/3.
a)Water at 20 °C flows in a partially full 2 m diameter circular channel at an average velocity of 2 m/s. If the maximum water depth is 0.5 m, determine the hydraulic radius, the Reynolds number, and the flow regime. b) The flow rate of water through a 5 m wide (into the paper) channel is controlled by a sluice gate. If the flow depths are measured to be 1.1 and 0.45 m upstream and downstream from the gates, respectively, determine the flow rate and the Froude number downstream from the gate.

Gradually varied flow of water in a wide rectangular channel with a per-unitwidth flow rate of 1 m3/s⋅m and a Manning coefficient of n = 0.02 is considered. The slope of the channel is 0.001, and at the location x = 0, the flow depth is measured to be 0.8 m. (a) Determine the normal and critical depths of the flow and classify the water surface profile, and (b) calculate the flow depth y at x = 1000 m by integrating the GVF equation numerically over the range 0 ≤ x ≤ 1000 m. Repeat part (b) to obtain the flow depths for different x values, and plot the surface profile.

On a circular conduit there are different diameters: diameter D1 = 2 m, changes into D2 = 3 m. The velocity in the entrance profile was measured: v1 = 3 m/s. Calculate the discharge and mean velocity at the outlet profile (see figure below). Determine also type of flow in both conduit profiles (whether the flow is laminar or turbulent) – temperature of water T = 12° C. (use Reynold’s number Re), For laminar flow: Re<2320, For turbulent flow Re>2320, Kinematic viscosity of water of 12°C, v is equal to 1,24 10^-6 m2/s.
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.
