A river has a cross section that is approximately a
rectangle with 10 ft deep and 50 ft wide. The
average velocity is 1 ft/s. How many U.S. gallons
per minute pass a given point? What is the
average velocity at a point downstream, where
the channel shape has changed to 7 ft in depth
and 150 ft in wide?

Example 3
A lake has a surface area of 100 km2. One river is
bringing water into the lake at a rate of 10,000
m3/s, while another is taking water out at 8000
m3/s. Neglecting evaporation of the water, how
fast is the level of the lake rising or falling?
8000 m3/s
100 km2
10,0000 m3/s
MZA@UTPChemEFluidMech
Solution
Assumption: Steady flow, density of the lake
water is constant, evaporation rate is negligible.
