<br />The momentum flux at Section B can therefore be given as: <br /> <br />2 2 <br />-S:. - - - -S:. <br />~ .. ~ + VB .. Ai'3 - A.e3YP3 + gA3 <br /> <br />(4) <br /> <br />Assuming that llllY f'orce exerted by bridge piers is negligible between <br /> <br />Sections A and B, the momentum flux will be constant at these and all <br /> <br />intermediate sections. That is <br /> <br />MA .. ~ .. ~ (5) <br /> <br />where M2 .. momentum nux at a:ny intermediate section between Sections A <br />..f. - <br />and B, .. gA + Ai'2 <br />2 <br />EqUAtions (3), (4) and (5) can be combined to give the f'ollowing relation: <br /> <br />- - Q2[ Cn 1..f. - <br />A1Yl .

"'P3YP3 + gA <br />3 <br /> <br />(6) <br /> <br />EqUAtion (6) contains three expressions f'or the manentum nux in the <br /> <br />constriction. The expressions are illustrated by the three curves in <br /> <br />Figures 2&, b and c, which relate the momentum f'lux ~ ~ constriction <br />to 'depths upstream f'rom, within, and downstream from the constriction, <br /> <br />respectively. These curves are t'unctions solely of' the discharge and the <br /> <br />geometry of' the cross sections and piers. <br /> <br />Six low-flow conditions can occur in the constriction, as illustrated <br /> <br />in Figure 3. In Figures 3&, b and c, the constriction is in a reach where <br /> <br />f'law would be sub-critical if the presence of' the bridge piers were ignored. <br /> <br />6 <br />
