A dam is to be modeled in a laboratory to determine the adequacy of its design. The length of the river to be modeled is 1500 m, while its largest width (also the dam width) is 300 m. The expected maximum flow over the spillway of the dam is 3600 m3 /s, while the maximum discharge in the laboratory is 1.0 /s. The available area in the laboratory to conduct chis project is 50 m X 25 m. Determine the largest feasible scale for the model.
