Synopsis

This book gives a comprehensive study of long-throated flumes, devices strategically placed in open channels to measure water flow for irrigation purposes or municipal water collection. The author presents a detailed analysis of the principles of fluid dynamics governing these structures, showcasing a comprehensive mathematical model used to predict flow rates through them. Through this model, the book demonstrates that accurate measurements of water flow can be achieved by considering factors such as friction, velocity distribution, and energy loss, providing a reliable tool for water management in agricultural and civil engineering applications.
