Unit 1: Introduction
Difference between open channel flow and pipe flow, geometrical
parameters of a channel, continuity equation, Uniform flow: Chezy’s and
Manning’s equations for uniform flow in open channels, velocity distribution,
most efficient channel section.
Unit 2: Energy and Momentum Principles
Critical depth, concepts of specific energy and specific force,
Critical, subcritical and supercritical flows, Froude Number, application of specific
energy principle for interpretation of open channel phenomena, flow through
vertical and horizontal contractions.
