| Language : | French language |
|
| Course contents : | I Guidelines principles
II The flow in uniform mode
III The flow gradually varied
IV The flow locally varied |
|
| Course objective : | Teaching the fondamental concepts of water flow in open channels.
Allow the students to design open channels and other plants with flow under atmospheric pressure.
After completing the course the student is expected to
1. Calculate the debits provided by a channel (generic term covering the works of water transportation under the effect of the gravity and to the air pressure, as channels, rivers, streams, égoûts, etc.) according to the height of water in this work.
2. Identify and to design the modifications to bring to a channel in order modify his capacities of water transportation.
3. Calculate the evolution of the water height in a channel on all his length. |
