Open Channel Hydraulics Individual Assignment (10%): Submission date January 2, 2025.

1. A rectangular channel is to be laid on a slope of 0.0005. The side slope will be of


smooth concrete (n=0.013). What width of channel is necessary to carry a discharge of

9m3/sec. with a normal depth of 1.6m?


2. A concrete lined trapezoidal channel n=0.015, with 8m and 10m bottom and top
width respectively. The longitudinal slope is 0.0009. Calculate the normal depth with in
the channel for a discharge of 20m3/s.
3. A trapezoidal channel has Four reaches A, B , C and D connected in series with the
following properties
Reach Bed Width(B) Side Slope(m) Bed Slope (So) n
A 5 1.5 0.0005 0.014
B 5 1.5 0.0001 0.012
C 5 1.5 0.009 0.012
D 5 1.5 0.004 0.014

For a discharge of 35m3/sec. through this channel, sketch the resulting water surface profiles.
4. A rectangular channel of bed slope 0.001 carries 40 m3/s of water and is 5 m wide. If an
overflow weir is installed across the channel, which raises the water level at the weir to a
depth of 6 m, compute (i) the normal depth of flow; and (ii) the distance to an upstream
section, where the depth of flow is 5.8 m and also classify the GVF profile.
5. A horizontal trapezoidal channel of bed width 2 m and side slopes 2H: 1V carries a
discharge of 6.225m3/s at a depth of 0.2 m. If a hydraulic jump occurs in this channel,
calculate the sequent depth, the energy loss and height of jump.
