This document discusses open channel hydraulics and specific energy. It defines key terms like head, energy, hydraulic grade line, energy line, critical depth, Froude number, specific energy, and gradually varied flow. It explains the concepts of critical depth, alternate depths, and how specific energy relates to critical depth for rectangular and non-rectangular channels. It also discusses surface profiles, backwater curves, types of bed slopes, occurrence of critical depth with changes in bed slope, and the energy equation for gradually varied flow. An example problem is included to demonstrate calculating distance between depths for gradually varied flow.

Hardy cross method of pipe network analysissidrarashiddar
Hardy Cross Method of pipe network analysis has revolutionized the municipal water supply design. i.e., EPANET, a public domain software of water supply, uses the Hardy cross method for pipe network analysis. It is an iterative approach to estimate the flows within the pipe network where inflows (supply) and outflows (demand) with pipe characteristics are known.

Quality defects in TMT Bars, Possible causes and Potential Solutions.PrashantGoswami42
Maintaining high-quality standards in the production of TMT bars is crucial for ensuring structural integrity in construction. Addressing common defects through careful monitoring, standardized processes, and advanced technology can significantly improve the quality of TMT bars. Continuous training and adherence to quality control measures will also play a pivotal role in minimizing these defects.

Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.

William Froude (1810-79)
Born in England and engaged
in shipbuilding. In his sixties
started the study of ship
resistance, building a boat
testing pool (approximately 75
m long) near his home. After his
death, this study was continued
by his son, Robert Edmund
Froude (1846-1924). For
similarity under conditions of
inertial and gravitational forces,
the non-dimensional number
used carries his name.

8. Specific Energy and Critical Depth
(Rectangular Channels)
Specific Energy
Specific Energy at a section in an open channel is the energy
with reference to the bed of the channel.
Mathematically;
Specific Energy = E = y+V2/2g

9. Specific Energy and Critical Depth
As it is clear from E~y diagram
drawn for constant discharge for
any given value of E, there would
be two possible depths, say y1 and
y2. These two depths are called
Alternate depths.
However for point C
corresponding to minimum
specific energy Emin, there would
be only one possible depth yc. The
depth yc is know as critical depth.
The critical depth may be defined
as depth corresponding to minimum
specific energy discharge remaining
Constant.

26. Non Uniform Flow or Varied Flow.
For uniform flow through open
channel, dy/dl is equal to zero.
However for non-uniform flow the
gravity force and frictional
resistance are not in balance. Thus
dy/dl is not equal to zero which
results in non-uniform flow.
There are two types of non
uniform flows.
In one the changing condition
extends over a long distance and
this is called gradually varied flow.
In the other the change may occur
over very abruptly and the transition
is thus confined to a short distance.
This may be designated as a local
non-uniform flow phenomenon or
rapidly varied flow.

An approximate analysis of gradually varied, non uniform flow can
be achieved by considering a length of stream consisting of a
number of successive reaches, in each of which uniform occurs.
Greater accuracy results from smaller depth variation in each reach.

Equation (2) is dynamic Equation for
gradually varied flow for constant value
of q and n
If dy/dx is +ve the depth of flow
increases in the direction of flow and
vice versa

Consequently, for constant q and n,
when y>yo, S<So, and the numerator
is +ve.
Conversely, when y<yo, S>So, and
the numerator is –ve.
To investigate the denominator we
observe that,
if F=1, dy/dx=infinity;
if F>1, the denominator is -ve; and
if F<1, the denominator is +ve.

Type 1: If the stream
surface lies above both the
normal and critical depth of
flow (M1, S1)
Type 2: If the stream
surface lies between normal
and critical depth of flow
(M2, S2)
Type 3: If the stream
surface lies below both the
normal and critical depth of
flow. (M3, S3)
