Consider water flow through two identical channels with square flow sections of 4 m 4 m.

Question:

Consider water flow through two identical channels with square flow sections of 4 m × 4 m. Now the two channels are combined, forming a 8-m-wide channel. The flow rate is adjusted so that the flow depth remains constant at 4 m. Determine the percent increase in flow rate as a result of combining the channels.
