    The document discusses hydraulic aspects of transporting water between two points via channels. It states that conveyance of a channel, which is the amount of water a channel can carry, increases with hydraulic radius. The hydraulic section with the minimum wetted perimeter has the maximum conveyance. It also discusses minimum permissible flow velocities to prevent sedimentation and vegetation growth, and the definition of freeboard as the vertical distance from the top of the channel to the water surface. It poses questions about trapezoidal and circular channel design and calculations for specific channel geometries and flow rates.

    Transport of water between two points in a safe and cost effective manner Includes economical safety and aesthetic aspects. The channel having the least wetted perimeter for the given area has the maximum conveyance

    Only focus will be on hydraulic aspects. Conveyance of a channel increases with hydraulic radius (Mannings Formula). Hydraulic radius increases with a decrease in wetted perimeter. Best hydraulic section is the one having minimum wetted perimeter.

    For a specific cross section, the proportion that p produces the best hydraulic y cross section (maximum flow) might be derived. The best hydraulic section might not be best from economical point of view.

    The minimum permissible velocity is the y that will prevent p lowest velocity sedimentation and vegetative growth (0.6 to 0.9 m/s for sedimentation and 0.75 m/s for vegetation. The vertical distance from the top of the channel h l to the h water surface f us known k as freeboard.
