The viscosity of the fluid helps to damp out the turbulent tendencies of
the fluid particles.
Steady flow - conditions at any point in the fluid do not change with time.
i.e. the temporal rates of change of velocities, density and pressure are
all zero.
Turbulent steady flow - temporal mean flow parameters do not change
with time.

One-dimensional (1D) flow - flow for which the variations or changes in the
conditions in the transverse direction of flow can be neglected. Example - flow
in a pipe, the flow condition in the central streamline at a point represents the
average condition of the flow at the associated cross-section.
Two-dimensional (2D) flow - flow for which the variations or changes in the
conditions in the normal directions to a parallel plane can be neglected.
Example - flow in a channel with rectangular cross-section.

Gradually varied flow (GVF) nonuniform flow but the curvature of the free
surface and of the accompanying streamlines is so slight that the transverse
pressure distribution at any section along the flow is hydrostatic. The flow can
be considered 1-D with the flow variables vary in the flow direction only.
Rapidly varied flow (RVF) nonuniform flow and the curvature of the free
surface and of the accompanying streamlines is large such that 1-D analysis
is not applicable. Examples include the hydraulic jump and curvilinear flow
over a spillway crest.
Spatially varied flow nonuniform flow with the nonuniformity comes from the
variation in the discharge rate along the flow direction and the associated
imbalance of gravity and resisting forces. Examples include the side channel
spillway flow and continuous rainfall additions to gutter flow.

Index-velocity method
Determine the relationship between the stage (S) and the channel
cross-sectional area (A).
A = f(S)
Determine the discharge using
Q=Vm x A
by measuring Vi and S
24
Example:
Measured Vi=0.2m/s
Vm=0.035+0.629Vi =
0.1608m/s
Measured stage S=3m
Area ~ 290m2
Q = 0.1608x290 =
