4 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is open channel flow?
Think about how rivers and canals are structured.
What two forces primarily influence open channel flow?
Consider what forces affect movement in fluids.
What is open channel flow?
Think about how rivers work.
Hydraulic radius is defined as?
Think about how 'radius' relates to area and edges of a channel.
Calculate the flow rate in a rectangular channel, 5 m wide and 1.5 m deep, moving at 2 m/s. Use the formula Q = A * v, where A is the area.
Don’t forget to calculate the area first before finding the flow rate.
A channel has a hydraulic radius of 0.75m. It is found to be flowing supercritically. Determine the flow characteristics and implications this has in engineering design.
Think about why engineers need to manage flow rates in channels.
