Question 1

What defines gradually varied flow?

  • Steady flow with constant depth
  • Flow depth changes gradually
  • Rapidly changing flow
  • Uniform flow properties

💡 Hint: Focus on the meaning of 'gradual' in fluid dynamics.

Question 2

True or False: A small channel bed slope is not significant in gradually varied flow.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider how slope impacts fluid behavior.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

If a channel is modified to have varying cross-sections, how would that impact the assumptions of gradually varied flow? Discuss potential issues and recalibration needed for analysis.

💡 Hint: Think of what happens when a uniform input leads to varied outputs.

Question 2

Consider waters flowing down a sloped channel. If the slope exceeds 'a small slope', describe the changes in flow characteristics and stability.

💡 Hint: Visualize how steepness affects downhill movement.
