Problems 6-7: Consider the channel flow. The design parameters include: Width of the channel may not exceed 5 m Design maximum volume flow rate is 150 m/sec Design rectangular channel 6. Design the channel's cross-section Determine critical depth for the rectangular channel Determine minimum specific energy c. Determine critical velocity d. Create energy vs. depth graph as shown in slide 14, and plot critical energy point on this graph e. Select 5 subcritical depths and plot them vs. calculated specific energy. Then draw the upper arm of the chart. f. Use specific energy values obtained in part "e" to determine alternate depths at the same energy value if flow becomes supercritical. Then plot these 5 values and draw the bottom arm of the graph. & For each of these 11 points determine velocity of the water. h. If necessary, plot more points in subcritical region until velocity become unreasonably slow Draw the channel's cross-section. Indicate design height that can handle unexpected slowing of the flow. Determine if your channel can also handle 20% volume increase at critical velocity. Even through more considerations are needed, this is a reasonable design height of the channel
