2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
Define open channel flow.
Think about natural water bodies.
What does the Froude number indicate?
Remember, it's a dimensionless number.
What Froude number indicates subcritical flow?
Think of conditions when waves travel faster.
True or False: A hydraulic jump only occurs at the supercritical flow.
Consider the definition of hydraulic jumps.
Design a rectangular channel to carry a flow rate of 100 m³/s with a minimum construction cost. What dimensions would you choose?
Use calculus to find minimum perimeter related to area.
Explain how you would calculate the energy losses for a hydraulic jump that transitions from an upstream depth of 3 meters, velocity 8 m/s to a downstream depth of 2 meters. Include Froude number calculation.
Use E = y + v²/(2g) to compute energies.
