M2 a Topic : Derivation of the Specific Energy Equation
Task : To demonstrate for a constant value of discharge, the
specific energy reaches a minimum value at the critical
depth. The specific energy is defined as the sum of the
flow depth and the velocity head. This critical depth
parameter is fundamental to a complete understanding of
free flow behavior because the response of a stream to
energy changes depends on whether the actual depth is
greater of less than the critical.
Resources: Open Flow Flume/Channel, rulers, hook and point
gauge, sluice gate, tail gate.
M2 b Topic: Characteristics of Hydraulic Jump and Energy
Dissipation
Task: To investigate the characteristics of hydraulic jump
located downstream of a sluice gate. The situation where
the flow changes from supercritical to subcritical, there
is a sudden increase in depth in the form of a hydraulic
jump. The purpose of creating hydraulic jump is to
dissipate the energy in the channel flow.
Resources: Open Flow Flume/Channel, rulers, hook and point
gauge, sluice gate, tail gate.
