Calculate the discharge through an open flume outlet for the following data: Coefficient of discharge = 1.71 Width of the throat = 0.15 m Head over the crest measured from FSL of distributary = 1.8 m

Calculate the discharge through an open flume outlet for the following data: Coefficient of discharge = 1.71 Width of the throat = 0.15 m Head over the crest measured from FSL of distributary = 1.8 m Correct Answer 0.62 cumecs

The discharge through an open flume outlet is given as – Q = Cd. W H3/2 where W = 0.15 m, Cd = 1.71 and H = 1.8 m Q = 1.71 x 0.15 x 1.83/2 = 0.62 cumecs.

Statement (I): The ogee spillway is a control weir having an S-shaped crest profile which provides a high discharge coefficient without causing cavitations. Statement (II): The crest profile of ogee spillway conforms to the lower nappe of flow over a ventilated sharp-crested weir and ensures a constant discharge coefficient for all heads.
If D is the depth of water upstream of the throat above its sill, B is the width of the throat, to achieve critical flow in an open venturi flume, the theoretical maximum flow Q, is
