A rectangular channel 6m wide by 1m deep is lain on slope of 0.001 and has roughness coefficient of n = 0.013. What is the mean velocity of flow (m/s) when the canal is full? What is the maximum capacity of the channel in m3/s? If the most efficient rectangular section is used, what depth of canal is required for the same discharge, slope, and roughness coefficient?

A 5 m wide rectangular channel carries a flow of 20 m3/s. The slope of the channel is 0.005 and the Manning’s n is 0.03. The flow encounters a 0.5 m step up that is 0.1 m long. The depths far upstream and downstream are normal. Classify this channel Qualitatively sketch this scenario, label gradually varied flow curves and provide appropriate depths. Draw this scenario on an E-Y cycle graph, and label all depth changes.
