Calculate the normal depth in the inlet channel <br /> ' High Flow Low Flow <br /> y„= 1.60 ft. y„= 0.60 ft. (Normal depth) <br /> Area= 5.1 ft2 Area = 0.7 ft2 (Flow area in channel) <br /> Qhigh= 58.8 cfs QIOW = 42 cfs (Capacity in channel) <br /> Scupstreamchannel= 0.065 ft/ft <br /> ' II. Calculate the critical depth in the chute <br /> High Flow Low Flow <br /> Yc= 2.22 ft. Yc= 0.77 ft.
