CE2253 APPLIED HYDRAULIC ENGINEERING
How to study this subject
OBJECTIVE
Student is introduced to open channel flow characteristics including hydraulic jump and surges.
Hydraulic machines viz flow through turbines and pumps including their performance
characteristics and design aspects are taught. Student, at the end of the semester will have the
abilities to analyse flow characteristics in open channel and design hydraulic machines.
UNIT I OPEN CHANNEL FLOW 9+3
Open channel flow Types and regimes of flow Velocity distribution in open channel Wide
open channel Specific energy Critical flow and its computation channel transition.
UNIT II UNIFORM FLOW 8+3
Uniform flow Velocity measurement Mannings and Chezys formula Determination of
roughness coefficients Determination of normal depth and velocity Most economical
sections Non-erodible channels
UNIT III VARIED FLOW 9+3
Dynamic equations of gradually varied flow Assumptions Characteristics of flow profiles
Draw down and back water curves Profile determination Graphical integration, direct step
and standard step method Flow through transitions - Hydraulic jump Types Energy
dissipation Surges.
UNIT IV PUMPS 9+3
Centrifugal pump - minimum speed to start the pump multistage Pumps Jet and submersible
pumps - Positive displacement pumps - reciprocating pump - negative slip - flow separation
conditions - air vessels -indicator diagram and its variation - savings in work done - rotary
pumps.35
UNIT V TURBINES 10+3
Turbines - draft tube and cavitations Application of momentum principle Impact of jets on
plane and curved plates - turbines - classification - radial flow turbines - axial flow turbines
