We designed the water flow rate to supply water to the increased
population in New Jersey in 2020 and the trapezoidal canal that
conveys the increased amount of water resources like Figure 2. The
concrete-lined canal (n=0.015) is to have a B (bottom width) /yn
(B/yn) of 2.0, 2H:1V side slopes and a velocity of 5.0 feet/s. The
normal water depth is 3.75 ft and the longitudinal slope is
0.000825.
2.1. When the depth of flow at the gaging station is observed to be
4 ft, classify the water surface profile at the gaging station.
2.2. Is it possible for a hydraulic jump to occur at the gaging station?
