Assignment (Hydraulic Structures II)

1. Design a Barrage across a river at a site which is situated 25 km downstream of a 120 m high
Dam, from the following data;
 High flood discharge = 6100 cumecs
 High flood level (before construction of Barrage) = 229.9m
 River bed level = 224.3 m
 Pond level = 228.15 m
 Permissible Afflux =1m
 Canal discharge = 151.5 cumecs
 Canal bed with = 50 m
 Canal full supply depth =3m
 Canal bed level = 224 m
 Angle of off-take = 110o
 Silt factor in the river = 1.5
 Safe exit gradient = 1/6 (assumed)
 Assume any other data if not given
Prepare a complete hydraulic design for the under-sluice section as well as for other Barrage bay
sections, on the basis of the Hydraulic jump and Khosla’s theory.
The gage discharge curve for the river is shown below;

(Hint: Follow the procedures presented in Examples 11.6 and 11.7; GARG)
