Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a channel with a bottom width of 6 meters, discharge of 1.2 cubic meters per second, how would you determine the type of slope (mild, steep, or critical) based on your calculations involving critical depth?

💡 Hint: Follow through each step to relate the depth types.

Question 2

How would changing the channel width affect the flow profiles if the discharge remains constant? Analyze the conditions of normal, mild, and steep slopes.

💡 Hint: Think through the effects of width and flow resistance.
