Q.l (a) Discuss briefly the energy dissipators to be used below an overflow spillway,
when T.W.c. is below J.H.C. for all discharges. [2]
(b) Design a lined canal to carry a discharge of 50 cumecs. Assume bed slope as 1 in
8100, n as 0.015 and side slope as 45°. [3]
Q.2 ~Draw the uplift pressures obtained by Khosla's solution and Bligh's theory for a
h9rGo~tal impervious floor. [2]
~ ~~~
~ A wide irrigation channel is designed to have a depth of 3'm and bed slope of 1.6
x 10-4.The bed sediment has an average median size of 0.3 mm. If the specific gravity of
bed soil is taken as 2.65, fall velocity of bed !mrticles as 0.04 mls and the I)bs~rved
Manning's 'n' to be 0.02, compute the bed load transported by the channel in N/s/m
width of channel. Also compute the suspended load concentration at 2 cm above channel
bottom. Consider f3= 1,k = 0.4 andv = 1.01xlO-6
