A rectangular open channel flow of Q = 2.4 m³/s undergoes a transition as shown in the figure. The upstream depth and width are 1 m and 4 m, respectively. The downstream width is 2 m. The change in elevation is 0.5 m and is such that the water surface level decreases by h= 0.3 m. A. Calculate the head loss that occurs across the transition B. Sketch the y - E diagram for this flow with appropriate details. The numerical answer for head loss is worth 1 pt, whereas the method and y-E diagram are worth 9 pts.
