Uniform flow is found only in artificial channels of constant shape, slope, although under these
conditions the flow for some distances may be non-uniform, as shown in Figure 4.1. However, with
natural stream the slope of the bed and the shape and size of the cross-section usually vary to such
an extent that true uniform flow is rare. Hence, the application of Manning equation for uniform
flow can be applied to non-uniform flow with accuracy dependent on the length of reach L taken. In
order to apply these equations at all, the streams must be divided into several reaches within which
the conditions are approximately the same.

There are two types of non uniform flow depending upon the change of depth of flow over the
length of the channel. If the depth of flow in a channel changes a gradually over a length of the
channel, the flow is said to be Gradually Varied Flow (GVF). If depth of flow changes abruptly over a
small length of the channel, the flow is said to be a local non-uniform phenomenon or Rapidly
Varied Flow (RVF). Gradually varied flow can occur with either subcritical or supercritical flow, but
the transition from one condition to the other is ordinarily abrupt, as between D and E in Figure 4.1.
Other cases of local non-uniform flow occur at the entrance and exit of a channel, at channel at
changes in cross sections, at bends and at on obstruction such as dams, weirs or bridge piers. See
Figure 4.7 for steady non-uniform flow in a channel.
Depth of flow for non-uniform flow conditions varies with longitudinal distance. It occurs upstream
and downstream control sections.

Problem:
1. A rectangular canal is 2.0m wide and carries 2.4m 3/s of water. The bed slope is 0.0009 and
the channel roughness n=0.012. At a certain section the depth is 0.90m and at another
section the depth is 1.20m.
a. Determine which depth is downstream
b. Determine the distance between sections with the given depths using one reach.
c. Determine the distance between the sections with the given depths using three
reaches.
2. Water discharges from under a sluice gate into a horizontal channel at a rate of 1m3/s per
meter of width as shown in the figure. What is the classification of the water surface
profile? Quantitatively evaluate the profile downstream of the gate and determine whether
or not it will extend all the way to the abrupt drop 80m downstream. Make the simplifying
assumption that the resistance factor f is equal to 0.02 and that the hydraulic radius R is
equal to the depth y.

depth of water is 1.50m and a downstream point 300m away, the depth of flow is 1.17m. If
the channel bed slope is 0.0010, find the theoretical flow rate. Use n=0.013.
