    Trapezoidal Canal Design

    This document summarizes the design of a trapezoidal channel to convey a design flow of 4 cubic meters per second. It determines the channel dimensions through iterative Manning's equation calculations to find a depth of 1.3 meters. With a bottom width of 1.6 meters and side slopes of 0.7, this gives a top width of 3.8 meters. Adding 0.3 meters of freeboard results in a total depth of 1.6 meters. Calculations confirm the velocity of 1.23 meters per second is sufficient for flow while avoiding sediment deposition and below the maximum 2 meters per second to prevent erosion.

    Channel Sizing

    Type 2 : Trapezoidal channel


    Design Flow of the project
    3
    Q design = 4.00 m /s
    side slope (N ) = 0.70
    Selected Channel Width
    bottom width (B) = 1.6 m B = 1.6m
    Roughness coefficient
    Table 3.6.4 n = 0.02 considering wood formwork
    MHDM Selected Channel Slope
    ( ANNEX A) S = 0.001

    Manning's equation
    Q = A x (1/n) x R2/3 x S1/2
    A = (B+dwN)x dw
    dw = Depth of water in canal
    R = A/P
    P = Wetted perimeter
    P = B+ [ 2xdwx 1 + ]
    R = (B+dwxN)x dw
    B+ [ 2x dwx 1 + ]
    therefore;
    dw = nxQ
    (B+ dwN) x R2/3 x S1/2
    by doing iterations,
    assume, dw,1 = 1.3 m
    dw,2 = 1.29890 m
    dw,3 = 1.29981 m
    dw,4 = 1.29906 m
    dw,5 = 1.29968 m
    dw,6 = 1.29916 m
    dw,7 = 1.29959 m
    dw,8 = 1.29924 m
    dw,9 = 1.29953 m
    dw,10 = 1.29929 m
    dw,11 = 1.29949 m
    dw,12 = 1.29932 m
    dw,13 = 1.29946 m
    dw,14 = 1.29935 m
    dw,15 = 1.29944 m
    dw,16 = 1.29936 m
    dw,17 = 1.29943 m
    dw,18 = 1.29937 m
    dw,19 = 1.29942 m
    dw,20 = 1.29938 m
    dw,21 = 1.29941 m

    dw,22 = 1.29939 m
    dw,23 = 1.29941 m
    dw,24 = 1.29939 m
    dw,25 = 1.29940 m
    dw,26 = 1.29939 m
    dw,27 = 1.29940 m
    dw,28 = 1.29939 m
    dw,29 = 1.29940 m
    dw,30 = 1.29939 m

    Take dw = 1.300 m
    depth of channel = 1.600 m
    Top width of channel = 1.6+ ( 2 x1.3x0.7)
    Top width of channel = 3.800 m
    considering free board of 0.3 m
    Required depth of Canal
    d = 1.3+0.3
    d = 1.600 m
    hence, selected depth of canal , d= 1.6 m d=1.6m
    2/3 1/2
    v = (1/n) x R x S

    R = (B+dwxN)x dw
    B+ [ 2x dwx 1 + ]
    substituting values of B, dw & N ,
    R = 0.68 m

    hence, v = 1.23 m/s

    Minimum velocity to avoid sediment deposition ,


    using Modified Shield's equation,
    d = 11000*R*S
    d = 11000 x0.68 x 0.001
    d = 7.52 mm
    d > 5 mm : therefore there is no sediment deposition at canal

    Table 3.6.2 Maximum velocity to avoid erosion - See ANNEX B


    MHDM v max = 2.0 m/s

    Check : v < 2 m/s , Velocity of water in channel is satisfactory
