Gradually & Rapidly Varied Flow
Notes

Hydraulics Engineering Gradually & Rapidly Varied Flow Chapter Notes cover topics such as:

• Gradually varied flow in Prismatic channels.
• Specific energy of flow.
• Critical depth in prismatic channels.
• Alternate depths.
• Rapid, critical and sub critical Flow.
• Mild, steep and Critical Slopes.
• Classification of surface curves in prismatic channels and elementary computation.
• Rapidly varied flow: Hydraulic jump or standing wave in rectangular channels.
• Conjugate or sequent depths Losses in jump.
• Location of jump.
• Velocity distribution in open channels.
• Energy correction factor.
• Moment correction factor.

These Gradually & Rapidly Varied Flow chapter notes are essential for understanding Design of Spillways, Hydraulic Jump in Energy Dissipation, Water Flow in Irrigation Canals, River Flood Routing and Control, Sluice Gate Flow Analysis, Flow over Weirs and Barrages, Design of Stepped Channels, Water Treatment Plant Channel Design, Culvert and Storm Drain Design, Navigation Channel Water Level Control, etc. concepts in hydraulics engineering.
