DESIGN OF CIRCULAR, LINED CHANNEL
1 Data:
Total C.C.A. = 50 Hect. = 123.55 acres
Duty of water = 80 acres /cusecs F.B.
a
Slope of bed of Channel: 1 in 1000
Intensity of Irrigation = 90 % G.L.
Type of Channel = L r
Co-eff. of roughness n = 0.015 h
2 Design discharge:
Net C.C.A. 90 /100 x 123.55 = 112 acres
Water requirement = 112 / 80 = 1.4 cusecs
Add 20% wastage for eveporation and seepage = 0.28 cusecs
Design discharge (Required carrying capacity), Q = 1.68 cusecs = 0.0476 cumecs
3 Design of Section:
Let Dia of half circular section = 600 mm .`. r = 0.3 m
Let Free Board, F.B. = 75 mm 0.075 m
h = r -F.B. = = 0.225 m
a = {h .(2r -h)}1/2 = 0.290474 m
Area of cross section, A = 4/3 h.{(a2 +2/5 h2)}1/2 = 0.097037 Sqm
Wetted perimeter p = Pi .r -2 .FB = 0.792857 m
Now, Velocity as per Maning`s equation, v = 1/n . (A/p)2/3 .s1/2 = 0.5197 m/sec
Velocity of the flow for lined channel may be 1 to 2 m/sec ingeneral OK
.`. Discharge carrying capacity = v.A = 0.0504 cumecs > Q i.e. 0.0476 cumecs
'OK' HENCE RECOMMENDED
