= (a) Estimate the sediment transport rate using appropriate formula of the following data. Give reasons for choosing the formula. Flow depth measured = 6m Discharge = 450 m?/s Width = 50m Bed slope = 0.0003 Typical diameter of sediment = 0.01 m Specific gravity of sediment = 2.65 (8 marks) (b) The relationship between model and prototype performance is determined by the laws of hydraulic similarity. Explain the three (3) laws of hydraulic similarity. (5 marks) = = = (c) Given that, Q = 0.05 m3 /sec, Di = 0.20 m, and D2 = 0.15 m are in a Venturimeter. A model of it will made of 1:5, geometric scale. Derive the time, velocity, discharge, and pressure scales of this Venturimeter. (12 marks)
