SECTION-A

I. Fill in the Blanks. (0.5x6 = 3)

1) In India, surface flow takes place through …... major rivers basins. In addition to
major rivers there are…. medium and … minor basins.
2) …… irrigation project having CCA > 10000ha
3) The largest potential of water is available in Ganga-Brahmaputra-Meghna basin with
a total of …. million ha-m
4) …… irrigation project having CCA 2000 to 10000ha
5) Minor irrigation project having CCA …….
6) The formula to compute the discharge through rectangular weir with both end
contraction is……..

II. (Answer any one of the following) (1x6=6)

1. Explain Irrigation projects based on cultural command area (CCA)
← (2 x3= 6)
2. Define coefficient of velocity, coefficient of discharge and coefficient of contraction.

SECTION-B

III. Answer any two of the Following. (5.5x2=11)

1) Discuss area-velocity method of water measurement
2) Water flows through a contracted rectangular weir 130 cm long to a depth of 30
cm, it then flows along a rectangular channel 170 cm wide and over a second
weir which has length equal to the width of the channel. Determine the depth of
water over the second weir.
3) Compute the mean velocity and discharge for a depth of flow of 0.40 m from a
lined trapezoidal channel of 0.5 m wide and side slope of 1.5 horizontal: 1
vertical. The Manning’s roughness (n) is 0.012 and the bed slope is 0.02%.
