Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A channel designed for uniform flow experiences a sudden increase in width. How would this impact the depth and what adjustments would you suggest?
💡 Hint: Consider continuity and what happens when channels change size.
Compare the effects of increasing channel slope versus decreasing depth on the fluid flow velocity in a uniform flow condition.
💡 Hint: Relate it to energy considerations in open channel flow.
