Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1.14P
Figure P1.14 shows the flow of water over a dam. The volume flow Q is known to depend only on crest width B, acceleration of gravity g, and upstream water height H above the dam crest. It is further known that Q is proportional to B, What is the form of the only possible dimen-sionally homogeneous relation for this flow rate?
