Stream power, originally derived by R. A. Bagnold in the 1960s, is the amount of energy the water in a river or stream is exerting on the sides and bottom of the river. [1] Stream power is the result of multiplying the density of the water, the acceleration of the water due to gravity, the volume of water flowing through the river, and the ...
[2] The development of a rating curve involves two steps. In the first step the relationship between stage and discharge is established by measuring the stage and corresponding discharge in the river. And in the second part, stage of river is measured and discharge is calculated by using the relationship established in the first part.
Example flow net 2, click to view full-size. The second flow net pictured here (modified from Ferris, et al., 1962) shows a flow net being used to analyze map-view flow (invariant in the vertical direction), rather than a cross-section. Note that this problem has symmetry, and only the left or right portions of it needed to have been done.
[2] The Streeter–Phelps equation is also known as the DO sag equation. This is due to the shape of the graph of the DO over time. The biological oxygen demand (BOD) and dissolved oxygen (DO) curves in a river flowing right reaching equilibrium after a continuous input of high BOD influent is added into the river at x = 15 m and t = 0 s.
The dimensionless Shields Diagram, in combination with the Shields formula is now unanimously accepted for initiation of sediment motion in rivers. Much work was done on river sediment transport formulae in the second half of the 20th century and that work should be used preferably to Hjulström's curve. [3]
Joe Burrow, Josh Allen and Kirk Cousins are all off in Week 12. Fantasy football owners will have some tough start/sit decisions in replacing them.
From this follows that for grains greater than 5 mm the Shields parameter gets a constant value of 0,055. The gradient of a river (I) can be determined by Chézy formula: = in which = the coefficiënt of Chézy ( m 1/2 / s ); This is often in the order 50 ( m 1/2 / s ). For a flat bed (i.e. without ripples) C can be approximated with:
