Question

Wastewater (s.g. 1.04) flows through a rectangular 15 ft widecannel at velocity of 5 ft/s and a depth of 10 ft. a) compute the width of a long throated flume required toestablish hydraulic control (i.e. choke). Assume no headloss. b) Assuming a gage reading in the approach well(hb) of 3.1 ft, select a Parshal flume capable ofmeasuring a flow of 700 ft/s without submerging the flow.
