water. The side slope is 45°. Take bed slope is 1 in 1000 and Chezy’s constant as
50.

Derive the condition for maximum discharge for a given value of specific energy.
In a hydraulic jump on a horizontal rectangular channel the Froude number
before the jump is 10 and energy loss during the jump is 4 m. Find i) depths
before and after the jump, ii) the discharge per unit width and iii) Froude no after
the jump.

Define the terms: i) conveyance of a channel section ii) normal depth.

A rectangular channel has a width of 1.8 m and carries a discharge of 1.8 m/s at
a depth of 0.2 m. Calculate i) specific energy ii) depth alternate to the existing
depth and iii) Froude numbers at the alternate depths.

PART C
Answer any two full questions, each carries 20 marks.
Derive the dynamic equation for gradually varied flow, stating the assumptions
involved.
A trapezoidal channel with 6 m bottom width and side slope 2 horizontal to 1

vertical having a bed slope of 0.0016 carries 10 m*/s of water. The dam along the
way of the channel rises the water depth by 2 m behind the dam. Decide the
nature of channel and type of profile of water. Take Manning’s coefficient as
0.025

acceleration ஐ, density ‏م‎ and viscosity பூ, Develop a functional relationship in
terms of non-dimensional numbers using Buckingham z theorem.

Explain the different types of similarities to be ensured between the model and
prototype.

Explain the Froude model law.

Find the slope of free water surface of a rectangular stream 20 m wide at a
section 3 m deep. The slope of the bed of stream is 1 in 5000. Total discharge is
25 173/6. Assume Chezy’s constant © as 55. State whether water surface will fall
or rise.
