Determination of flow surface profile in contraction allowing no gradual hydraulic drop in perfection. Where Q= 100cfs,  y_u/s=5ft  and other details are given in fig below.

Solution:

As E is Constant.

E= y + V²/2g

E = y + Q²/A²2g

---

So, At Upstream (u/s):

E = 5 + 100²/ (b² × y² ×2 × 32.2)

E = 5 + 100²/ (10² × 5² ×64.4 )

E=5.06’

At downstream (d/s):

E = y_d/s + Q²/ (b² × y_d/s ² × 2g)

5.06 = y_d/s + 100²/ (8² × y_d/s ² × 64.4)

y_d/s = 4.96’ &;   0 .75’

---

Where; Y_c = 2/3 × E

         =2 × 5.06/3 

         = 3.37’

& Slope  = (10-8) / 50  = 0.04
