involve for most economical rectangular channel.

is raised by 0.25m elevation at a given section. At the upstream section, the depth of flow

is 2.0m and the kinetic energy correction factor (α) is 1.15. if the drop in the water surface

elevation at the contraction is 0.20m, calculate the discharge if (a) the energy loss is

neglected, and (b) the energy loss is one-tenth of the upstream velocity head . (the kinetic

energy correction factor at the contracted section may be assumed to be unity).
