Question:

A hydraulic transition I 00 ft long is used to connect two rectangular channels, 12 ft and 6 ft wide, respectively. The design discharge is 500 cfs, n = 0 .0 13, and the slopes of the channels 6.5.1. - ,/ 6:5.2. -- are 0.0009 for both; Determine the change in the bottom elevation and the water surface profile in the transition if the energy loss in the transition@ . 5 ft and is uniformly distributed throughout the transition length. Assume uniform (normal) depth before and after the transition; use appropriate computer software to assist you.
