NOTE: Draw neat sketches where required. Assume missing data if any.
Q.No.1 A rectangular channel is 4.0 m wide and carries a discharge of 10
{20+(Roll No/20)} m3/s at a depth of 2.0 m. At a certain section it CLO-2
is proposed to build a hump. Calculate the water surface elevations
at upstream of the hump and over the hump if the hump height is
0.33 m. (Assume no loss of energy at the hump.)
Q.No.2 A trapezoidal channel having a side slope of 1.5 horizontal:1 10 CLO-2
vertical and a bed width of 6m carries a discharge of {15+(Roll
No/30)} m3/s. If So = 0.0006 and n= 0.015, calculate the normal
depth of flow for the given discharge.
Q.No.3 A trapezoidal channel has three reaches A, B and C connected in 10 CLO-2
series with the following properties:
Reac Bed Width, B Side slope m Bed Slope So n
h
A 4.0 m 1.0 0.0005 0.015
B 4.0 m 1.0 0.007 0.012
C 4.0 m 1.0 0.003 0.015
For a discharge of [22.5+(Roll No.)/5] cumecs, draw the resulting
water surface profile. Assume each reach to be sufficiently long to
develop a fully developed GVF profile.
Q.No.4 An overflow spillway has its crest at elevation {125.40+(Roll 10 CLO-3
No/20
)}m and a horizontal apron at an elevation of 95.00 m on the
downstream side. Find the tailwater elevation required to form a
hydraulic jump when the elevation of the energy line is {127.90+
(Roll No/20)} m. The Cd for the flow can be assumed as 0.735.
The energy loss for the flow over the spillway face can be
neglected.
Q.No.5 The flow in a wide rectangular channel of bed slope S o = 0.0008 10 CLO-3
and n = 0.025 is controlled at the upstream end by a sluice gate.
The sluice gate is adjusted to discharge {8.0 + (Roll No/30)} m3/s
per meter width of the channel, with a depth of 0.50m at the vena
contracta. Find the location of the jump and the sequent depth.
