Classification of Open-Channel
Flows
Open-channel flows are characterized by the presence
of a liquid-gas interface called the free surface.

Open-Channel Flow
Comparison of Open Channel Flow & Pipe Flow (full)
1) No free surface in pipe flow 1) OCF must have a free surface
8) No such dependence.
8) The depth of flow, discharge
and the slopes of channel
bottom and of the free surface
are interdependent.
Kinds of Open Channel
■ Canal
■ Flume
■ Chute
■ Drop
■ Culvert
■ Open-Flow Tunnel
Kinds of Open Channel
■ CULVERT is a covered
channel flowing partly
full, which is installed
to drain water through
highway and railroad
embankments.
Kinds of Open Channel
■ OPEN-FLOW TUNNEL is a
comparatively long covered
channel used to carry
water through a hill or any
obstruction on the ground.

• For
the main channel (subsection I):
The main channel is a composite channel too.
Therefore, we need to find an equivalent value of n.
