Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a wave speed of 5 m/s in a channel depth of 2m, calculate the effective Froude number when fluid flows at 3 m/s.

💡 Hint: Consider the relationship between wave speed and flow.

Question 2

A rectangular channel has a depth of 3 meters. If the fluid at the surface moves at 6 m/s, calculate the wave speed and assess the flow condition.

💡 Hint: Compare fluid speed to wave speed to determine the flow condition.
