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.
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_____________
The discharge passing over an ogee spillway is given by (where, L is effective length of spillway crest and H is the total head over the spillway crest including velocity head.)
Two centrifugal pumps P and R are available for use in a pipe flow system and their head-discharge characteristics are as follows. Pump P Pump R Discharge (cumecs) Head (m) Discharge (cumecs) Head (m) 0 40 0 45 0.12 35 0.14 40 0.2 28 0.24 35 0.3 18 0.3 28   The following statements (S1, S2, and S3) pertain to the head and discharge values during actual operation. 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.
