2 Learning ObjecAves ASer compleang this chapter, you should be able to: discuss the general characterisacs of open- channel flow. use a specific energy diagram. apply appropriate equaaons to analyze open- channel flow with uniform depth. calculate key properaes of a hydraulic jump. determine flow rates based on open- channel flow- measuring devices. 2

3 IntroducAon Natural and Man- made Open Channel Photos 3

4 IntroducAon Open- Channel flow is a flow which has a free surface, i.e. a surface on which the pressure is equal to local atmospheric pressure. The main driving force is the weight of the fluid, gravity forces the fluid flow to downhill. P atm P atm Free Surface 4

5 IntroducAon The difference between open- channel flow and the pipe flow is in the fundamental mechanism that drives the flow. Open Channel Flow Only Gravity drives Pipe Flow Pressure (and in some cases also Gravity) drives If the pipe is not full, it is not possible to maintain the pressure difference, p 1 p 2. So it is actually open channel flow! 5

6 ClassificaAon of Open- Channel Flow The flow is called steady if the depth at a given locaaon does not change with Ame. If the depth at a given locaaon changes with Ame, flow is called unsteady. dy dt = 0 dy Steady dt 0 Unsteady An open- channel flow is classified as uniform flow (UF) if the depth of flow does not vary along the channel. Conversely it is nonuniform flow or varied flow if the depth varies with distance. dy dx = 0 dy Uniform dx 0 Varied 6

7 ClassificaAon of Nonuniform Flow Nonuniform flows are further classified as rapidly varying flow (RVF) if the flow depth changes considerably over a relaavely short distance. Gradually varying flows (GVF) are those in which the flow depth changes slowly with distance along the channel. dy dx 1 Rapidly Varying Flow dy <<1 Gradually Varying Flow dx 7

9 Laminar or Turbulent Flow Open- Channel flow may be laminar, transiaonal, or turbulent. Which type of flow occurs depends on the Reynolds number, Re. Re < 500 Laminar Re > 1250 Turbulent Re = ρvr H otherwise TransiAonal µ V : (cross- secaonal) average velocity of the fluid R H : hydraulic radius of the channel cross- secaon ρ : fluid density μ : dynamic viscosity of the fluid Reynolds number indicates the effect of viscosity on the flow. Viscous effect is not as important in Open- Channel flow compared to Pipe flow! 9

55 Uniform Depth Flow dy Uniform Depth Flow dx = 0 S 0 = S f Flow depth (and flow velocity) is constant along the channel and it is called normal depth y n. Uniform flow develops in long straight prismaac channels with no booom slope changes. Uniform depth is maintained as long as the slope, cross- secaon, and surface roughness of the channel remain unchanged. During uniform flow, the terminal velocity is reached, and the head loss equals to the channel bed elevaaon drop. 55
