Gibb’s module is a type of outlet which ensures constant discharge even if the water levels in the supply channel and watercourse fluctuate.

Gibb’s module is a type of outlet which ensures constant discharge even if the water levels in the supply channel and watercourse fluctuate. Correct Answer True

An upward rotational flow is imparted if the head causing flow increases at the outer wall restricting against the baffles. The water spins round in the compartment between two successive baffles and finally drops on the incoming water stream of water. This dissipates excess energy and helps in maintaining constant discharge for a wide variation in the head.

Let us take the gross commanded area of a watercourse is 2000 hectares, 80% of which is culturable irrigable. Intensities of sugarcane and paddy are 30% and 50%. The duties of the crops at the head of the watercourse are 850 hectares/cumec and 1900 hectares/cumec. Find the discharge required at the head of the watercourse?
A tank has an optional adjustable outlet pipe that can be attached to the tank at any height we want. This outlet pipe drains water from the tank at a constant rate, while the tank is being filled using another inlet pipe at a constant rate. If the outlet, pipe is attached at half the height of the tank, the tank, which is initially empty gets filled in 18 hours. If the outlet pipe is attached at height equal to two third height of the tank, the tank, which is initially empty, is filled in 16 hours. In how many hours will the tank, which is initially empty, be completely filled if the outlet pipe is not attached to the tank?
Two centrifugal pumps P and R are available for use in a pipe flow system and their head-discharge characteristics are as follows.

Neglect losses in the system. Which of the following statements are correct? S1: When the two pumps P and R are connected in parallel, the discharge is 0.36 cumecs corresponding to a head of 35 m. S2: When the two pumps P and R are connected in parallel, the discharge is 0.36 cumecs corresponding to a head of 70 m. S3: When the two pumps P and R are connected in series, the discharge is 0.3 cumecs corresponding to a head of 46 m.
