Water is stored behind a vertical sluice gate to a depth of 4 m. The gate opening is 0.5 m and the downstream channel is running on a slope of 0.00 5 m/m. The channel is rectangular in shape with a width of 3 m and a Manning n value of0.035.
a. Will a hydraulic jump form downstream of the gate in this case and, if so, what will be the conjugate depths?
b. Sketch the water surface profiles that will develop on either side of the gate.
