Open Channel Flow
Across
- 2. Fr < 1; velocity is low enough that small disturbances propagate upstream and downstream
- 5. Velocity of liquid does not change from one section to another. The cross-section and depth must be constant
- 6. Velocity at a particular point in the channel varies with time
- 7. Velocity at a particular point in the channel does not vary with time
Down
- 1. Fr > 1; velocity is high enough that small distubances can only propagate downstream
- 2. High Re, above threshold
- 3. Low Re, below threshold
- 4. Velocity, depth and cross-section vary continuously
