    Candidates are required to give their answers in their own words as far
    as practicable.
    The figures in the margin indicate full marks.
    Attempt all the questions.

    1. a) Differentiate between pipe flow and open channel flow. Derive 8


    Hagen-Poiseulli’s equation for the drop in pressure head for
    laminar flow through circular pipes
    b) Determine the rate of flow of water through a pipe of 20 cm diameter 7
    and length 50 m when one end of the pipe is connected to a tank and
    other end of the pipe is open to the atmosphere. The pipe is horizontal
    and the height of water in the tank is 4 m above the center of the pipe.
    Consider all losses and take frictional coefficient f = 0.009.
    2. a) Solve the following pipe network by using hardy cross method. 8
    Assuming n = 2 in hf = r Qn.
    r=2 D
    A
    20 40

    r=4 r=1 r=1

    B C
    90 30
    r=2
    b) Two reservoirs are connected by a pipe line consisting of two pipes, 7
    one is 15 cm diameter and length of 25 m and the other of 30 cm
    diameter and length of 15 m. If the difference of water level in the two
    reservoir is 12 m, calculate the discharge and draw the energy gradient
    line. Take friction factor f=0.04.
    3. a) What is most economical channel section? Derive the condition for 6
    the best side slope of the most economical rectangular channel.
    b) A main channel has to irrigate certain area. Following data are 9
    available for design:
    1
    Discharge = 25 cumec
    Longitudinal slope = 1in 5000
    Roughness coefficient C = 45s
    Limiting velocity = 0.75 m/sec
    Design the most efficient trapezoidal section.
    4. a) A rectangular channel 5m wide conveys a discharge of 15 m3/s of 8
    water at a depth of 2m. If the width of the channel is reduced to 3.50
    m on the downstream side, will the water surface in the channel be
    disturbed? What will be the depth of flow in the reduced section?
    b) A trapezoidal channel has a bottom width of 6m and side slopes of 2 7
    horizontal to 1 vertical. If the depth of flow is 1.2 m at a discharge 12
    m3/s. Compute the specific energy and the critical depth.
    5. a) What is meant by specific energy? Show that for a given value of 7
    specific energy in a particular channel section, the flow discharge
    is maximum when the flow is critical?
    b) What is gradually varied flow? Derive the differential equation for 8
    steady gradually varied flow in open channel and list all
    assumptions.
    c) a) The depth of flow of water, at a certain section of a rectangular 8
    6 channel of 2 m wide, is 0.3 m. The discharge through the channel is
    1.5 m3/s. Determine whether a hydraulic jump will occur and if so,
    find loss of energy per kg of water.
    b) Find the slope of the free water surface in a rectangular channel of 7
    width 20 m having a depth of flow 5 m. The discharge through the
    channel is 50m3/s. The bed of the channel is having slope of 1 in 4000.
    Take the value of Chezy's constant = 60.
    d) Write Short notes on any two: 2×5
    a) Equivalent diameter of pipe
    b) Surge tank
    c) Back water curve
