Water Is Stored Behind A Sluice Gate To A Depth Of 3 M As Shown In Figure Q2 The Channel Is Wide Rectangular With Gate 1 (36.46 KiB) Viewed 40 times

Water is stored behind a sluice gate to a depth of 3 m as shown in Figure Q2. The channel is wide rectangular with gate opening at 0.55 m, and Manning n value of 0.035. The contraction coefficient is given as 0.6, while friction loss is negligible. a. If the gate is clear (i.c., flow is unsubmerged and unobstructed), compute its discharge per unit width (q). [6 marks] b. Given a bed slope of 0.001 m/m, analyze whether the gate discharge in Question 2a. be sustained (i.e. without hydraulic jump submergence). [10 marks] c. State which equation should be used to estimate submerged gate discharge. [4 marks] 3 m 0.55 m
