Design of Trapezoidal Channel Section

The document describes the design of a trapezoidal channel section using Dickens and Manning's formulas. It determines the discharge of the channel to be 1.811 cubic meters per second using Dickens formula. It then uses Manning's formula to calculate the depth of the channel as 0.9265 meters, with a bottom width of 0.7671 meters and a top width of 2.62 meters.

DESIGN OF TRAPEZOIDAL CHANNEL SECTION

Area = 125 bigha = 0.2026 sqkm (1 bigha = 0.0016 sqkm)


DICKENS FORMULA
Q = Cd x m3/4 Cd = 6 (value for North indian plain)
= 6 x (0.2026)3/4
= 1.811 m3/sec
MANINGS FORMULA

Q/A=V = 1/n x R2/3 x S1/2


Area (A) = (B+D) D .. eqn (1)
Perimeter (P) = B + 22D {P + 2??? ?m2}

1:1
m=1 eqn(2)

D
B

WETTED PERIMETER (R) = A/P = ((B+D) D)/( B + 22D)).eqn(3)


FOR ECONOMICAL SECTION R = D/2
D/2 = ((B+D) D)/( B + 22D))
B=0.828D Solving above equation we have
Q / A = 1/n x R2/3 x S1/2
1.811/ (B+D)D) = 1/0.018 x ((B+D) D)/ (B + 22D)) 2/3 x (1/1200)1/2 (value of n from Is code 10430.2000)
1.811 / 1.828 D2 = 66.67 x ((0.828D+D)D/(0.828D + 2?D))2/3 x 0.0289
1.811 / 1.828 D2 = 1.9267 x (1.828D2/3.656D)2/3
1.811 / 1.828 D2 = 1.9267 x 0.6299 x D2/3
0.9907= 1.2136 x D8/3
D = 0.9265m Thus B = 0.828D = 0.7671m
Thus Top width = B+2D=2.62m
2.62m

1:1

1.31m
0.7671m
