Synopsis

Excerpt from Flume: A Computer Model for Estimating Flow Through Long-Throated Measuring Flumes

Figure shows the general profile of flow through a long throated flume. The subscripts 1 and 2 refer to conditions in the approach and tailwater channels, respectively. The refer ence elevation for energy levels is the bottom of the flume throat or crest of the weir sill, which will be referred to as the sill reference Thus, as shown, the actual water depth is described by y, and the sill-referenced depth is described by h. The difference between the two is the sill height, p. Also shown is the energy level, H, and the energy loss across the flume, ah. Limitations on profile dimensions shown in figure are further discussed in chapters 2 and 3. Some additional limitations are introduced for the movable weirs to facilitate their use and to incorporate some practical con siderations. These are shown in figure 303 et al.
