In a rectangular channel, the ratio of the velocity head to the flow depth for critical flow condition is
In a rectangular open channel, 2.0 m wide, water flows at a depth of 0.8 m. It discharges over an aerated sharp-crested weir over the full width, with depth over weir crest being 0.25 m. Cc.= 0.61. Adjusting for velocity head of approach, what would be the discharge through the channel? √2g = 4.43 units
Hydraulically, the economical section of drains for large flow is:
