Q.1 Answer/Solve the following Marks Bloom’s CO

Level
a) Discuss concept of critical, sub-critical, super-critical flow. 07 L2 CO1

OR
a) A water channel is V-shaped with each side making an angle of 45° to 07 L2 CO1
the vertical. Calculate the discharge when the depth of water in the
channel is 0.3 m. and the bed slopes of channel is 1 in 500. Take
Chezy’s constant C = 50. What will be depth of water in the channel to
pass twice the above said discharge if bed slope and what of C is same.

b) Discuss classification of slopes with reference to GVF. 08 CO1

OR
b) Discuss stepwise procedure of direct step method with illustrative 08 L2 CO1
example.
Q.2 Answer/Solve the following
a) Explain the errors in the measurement of discharge in notches. 07 L3 CO2
OR
a) Show that, the rate of discharge over 60° V notch may be expressed by 07 L3 CO2
equation Q = K H(5/2), with Cd = 0.588.
b) Determine efficiency of series of flat plates normal to jet mounted on 08 L3 CO2
periphery of wheel.

OR
b) Water at a pressure of 300 kPa flows through a tapering pipe. The inlet 08 L3 CO2

Page 1 of 2
 diameter of the pipe is 100 mm and the outlet diameter is 50 mm. If the
entering velocity is 4 m/s, calculate the axial fore on the pipe assuming
no loss of energy.
Q.3 Answer/Solve any Two
a) Explain classification of Turbines in detail. 08 L2 CO1
b) Explain of centrifugal pump in detail. 08 L2 CO1
c) Write a short note on net positive suction head (NPHS). 08 L2 CO2
d) Discuss advantages of hydro-electric power plant. Also, explain the 08 L2 CO2
typical components of hydro-electric power plant.

Q.4 Answer/Solve any Two

a) Explain methods of water application to soil. 09 L3 CO3
b) Discuss various methods for improving duty. 09 L3 CO3
c) A water course has a culturable command area of 1500 hectares. The 09 L3 CO3
intensity of irrigation for crop A is 40% and for B is 25%, both crops
being rabi crops. Crop A has kor period of 25 days and crop B has kor
period of 12 days. Calculate the discharge of the water course if the
depth for crop is 12 cm and for B is 18 cm.
Q.5 Answer/Solve any Two
a) Explain in detail: Gravity dam, rock fill and Buttress dam 09 L3 CO4
b) Discuss reservoir sedimentation. 09 L3 CO4
c) Explain in detail investigations required for construction of reservoir. 09 L3 CO4

Q.6 Answer/Solve any Three

a) Write a note on types of reservoir. 06 L2 CO3
b) Elaborate different types of earth dam. 06 L2 CO3
c) Explain Elementary profile and practical profile of dam. 06 L2 CO4
d) Illustrate factors affecting duty. 06 L2 CO4
