Example $3\mathrm{.}2$

The rectangular siphon shown has a

constant cross section of $1m1m$ and is

$40m$ long. The distance between the

entrance and the crown is $10m.$ The

friction factor $f=0\mathrm{.}025,$ the inlet coeff $=$

$0\mathrm{.}1,$ the bend loss coeff $=0\mathrm{.}8$ at the

crown, and the exit loss coeff $=1\mathrm{.}0.$

Determine the discharge and the pressure

head at the crown section.the rectangular siphon shown has a
