A horizontal rectangular stilling basin (USBR type III) is used at the outlet of a spillway to dissipate ‘energy. The spillway discharges 9.91 m'/s and has a uniform width of 10.67 m. At the point were the water enters the basin, the velocity is 9.14 m/s, Compute the following: (a) the length of the jam (b) the efficiency of the jump defined as the ratio of specific energy after the hydraulic jump > specific energy before the jump, 2) An irrigation district is considering installation of small hydro plant on one of their existing canals. The canal is operated 5 months a year at an average flow rate of 8.1 m’/s. Available head at the site is 3.8 m. Plant operator will be able to market the power generated at an average of 4.8 USDeeat WE ‘Assuming the facility has a total investment cost of $646,000, plant efficiency is 80 percent, and ‘annual operation and maintenance costs are $12,00®, what is the benefiticost ratio and payback period of the project?
