Question: ( 1 5 pts ) Plot the channel bottom, Hydraulic Grade Line ( HGL ) and Energy Grade Line ( EGL ) for a 1

(15 pts) Plot the channel bottom, Hydraulic Grade Line (HGL) and Energy Grade Line (EGL) for a 1000-foot length (reach) of 7-foot-wide concrete rectangular canal conveying 70ft3sec based on the following field measured (surveyed) parameters:
Upstream Section #1
Channel Bottom Elev. =102.5 feet
Flow Depth =1.8 feet
Downstream Section #2
Channel Bottom Elev. =100 feet
Flow Depth =3.3 feet
What can you tell about the flow regime based on the plot?
( 1 5 pts ) Plot the channel bottom, Hydraulic
