Q 1. Define:

(i) Broad crested weir.

(ii) GVF and RVF.
(iii) Hydraulic jump.

Q 2. Define similitude and derived dynamic similarity.

Q 3. A spillway model is to be built to a geometrically similar scale of 1:50 across a flume of 600 mm width. The
prototype is 15 m. high and the maximum head on it is expected to be 1.5 meters.

is expected?
(iii) If the negative pressure in the model is 200 mm, what is the negative pressure in prototype? Is it
practicable?

Q 4. What is the ‘scale effect’? What are the reasons for the development of scale effect?
