The discharge passing over an ogee spillway per unit length of its apex line is proportional ___________________

The discharge passing over an ogee spillway per unit length of its apex line is proportional ___________________ Correct Answer H3/2

The discharge passing over the ogee spillway is given by the formula – Q = C. Le. H3/2 where Le is the effective length of the spillway crest, C is the coefficient of discharge and H is the total head over the crest including the velocity head. It is clear from the discharge equation that the discharge is proportional to H3/2.

An ogee spillway of a concrete gravity dam having FRL of 328 m and MWL of 340 m is provided with vertical gates between piers erected on the spillway. The effective length of the spillway is 60 m. The discharge through the spillway when gates are opened up to the actual reservoir level of 331.0 m will be_____________
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.
For discharge over ogee weir discharge is directly proportional to length but for discharge over narrow crested weir it is inversely proportional to length.
Arrange the following stages in a sequence, such that they result in an ogee curve between two parallel lines AB and CD, such that they are the tangents to the arc. m) Join the adjacent ends B and C with a straight line. n) Divide the line BC into four parts using the points P1, P2, P3. o) Draw lines such that they pass through the points P1, P2, P3, and are perpendicular to the line BC. p) Draw the perpendicular lines through the points B and C such that they cut the lines passing through P1, P3 respectively at E and F. q) With the center E draw an arc BP2 and with center F draw an arc P2C, thus arc BP2C is required ogee curve.
