CHAPTER 5:
REVIEW OF 1D OPEN CHANNEL HYDRAULICS
Dam at Hiram Falls on the Saco River near Hiram, Maine, USA

TOPICS REVIEWED
This e-book is not intended to include a full treatment of open channel flow. It is
assumed that the reader has had a course in open channel flow, or has access
to texts that cover the field. Nearly all undergraduate texts in fluid mechanics for
civil engineers have sections on open channel flow (e.g. Crowe et al., 2001).
Three texts that specifically focus on open channel flow are those by Henderson
(1966), Chaudhry (1993) and Jain (2000).
Topics treated here include:
• Relations for boundary resistance
• Normal (steady, uniform) flow
• St. Venant shallow water equations
• Gradually varied flow
• Froude number: subcritical, critical and supercritical flow
• Classification of backwater curves
• Numerical calculation of backwater curves

SIMPLIFICATION OF CHANNEL CROSS-SECTIONAL SHAPE
River channel cross sections have complicated shapes. In a 1D analysis, it is
appropriate to approximate the shape as a rectangle, so that B denotes channel
width and H denotes channel depth (reflecting the cross-sectionally averaged depth
of the actual cross-section). As was seen in Chapter 3, natural channels are
generally wide in the sense that Hbf/Bbf << 1, where the subscript “bf” denotes
“bankfull”. As a result the hydraulic radius Rh is usually approximated accurately by
the average depth. In terms of a rectangular channel,

It can be interpreted as a ratio scaling the ratio impelling force of flow drag acting on
a particle to the Coulomb force resisting motion acting on the same particle, so that
The characterization of bed mobility thus requires a quantification of boundary shear

BED RESISTANCE RELATION FOR MOBILE-BED FLUME EXPERIMENTS
Sediment transport relations for rivers have traditionally been
determined using a simplified analog: a straight, rectangular
flume with smooth, vertical sidewalls. Meyer-Peter and Müller
(1948) used two famous early data sets of flume data on
sediment transport to determine their famous sediment transport
relation (introduced later). These are a) a subset of the data of
Gilbert (1914) collected at Berkeley, California (D50 = 3.17 mm,
4.94 mm and 7.01 mm) and the set due to Meyer-Peter et al.
(1934) collected at E.T.H., Zurich, Switzerland (D50 = 5.21 mm
and 28.65 mm).
Bedforms such as dunes were present in many of the
experiments in these two sets. In the case of 116 experiments
of Gilbert and 52 experiments of Meyer-Peter et al., it was
reported that no bedforms were present and that sediment was
transported under flat-bed conditions. Wong (2003) used this
data set to study bed resistance over a mobile bed without
bedforms.

BED RESISTANCE RELATION FOR MOBILE-BED FLUME EXPERIMENTS
contd.
Most laboratory flumes are not wide enough to prevent sidewall effects. Vanoni
(1975), however, reports a method by which sidewall effects can be removed from
the data. As a result, depth H is replaced by the hydraulic radius of the bed region
Rb. (Not to worry, Rb  H as H/B  0). Wong (2003) used this procedure to
remove sidewall effects from the previously-mentioned data of Gilbert (1914) and
Meyer-Peter et al. (1934).
The material used in all the experiments in question was quite well-sorted. Wong
(2003) estimated a value of D90 from the experiments using the given values of
median size D50 and geometric standard deviation g, and the following relation for
a log-normal grain size distribution;
Wong then estimated ks as equal to 2D90 in accordance with the result of
Kamphuis (1974), and s in the Manning-Strickler resistance relation as 8.1 in
accordance with Parker (1991). The excellent agreement with the data is
shown on the next page.

TEST OF RESISTANCE RELATION AGAINST MOBILE-BED DATA WITHOUT

NORMAL FLOW
Normal flow is an equilibrium state defined by a perfect balance between the
downstream gravitational impelling force and resistive bed force. The
resulting flow is constant in time and in the downstream, or x direction.
Parameters:
x = downstream coordinate [L]
H = flow depth [L]
U = flow velocity [L/T]
qw = water discharge per unit width [L2T-1]
B = width [L]
Qw = qwB = water discharge [L3/T]
g = acceleration of gravity [L/T2]
 = bed angle [1]
b = bed boundary shear stress [M/L/T2]
S = tan = streamwise bed slope [1]
(cos   1; sin   tan   S)
 = water density [M/L3]
As can be seen from Chapter 3, the
bed slope angle  of the great
majority of alluvial rivers is sufficiently
small to allow the approximations

BUT NOT ALL OPEN-CHANNEL FLOWS ARE AT OR CLOSE TO EQUILIBRIUM!
Flow into standing water (lake or
reservoir) usually takes the form
of an M1 curve.
Flow over a free overfall
(waterfall) usually takes the form
of an M2 curve.
A key dimensionless parameter describing the way
in which open-channel flow can deviate from
normal equilibrium is the Froude number Fr: gH
U

Fr
And therefore the calculation of bed shear stress as b = gHS is not always
accurate. In such cases it is necessary to compute the disquilibrium (e.g.
gradually varied) flow and calculate the bed shear stress from the relation

The flow is assumed to be gradually varying, i.e. the spatial scale Lx of variation in
the streamwise direction satisfies the condition H/Lx << 1. Under this assumption the
pressure p can be approximated as hydrostatic. Where z = an upward normal

Consider the case of constant bed slope S. Setting the numerator of the right-hand

recovers the condition of normal equilibrium, at which normal depth Hn prevails:
Setting the denominator of the right-hand side of the backwater equation = zero yields

NORMAL AND CRITICAL DEPTH
At any given point in a gradually varied flow the depth H may differ from both Hn and
Hc. If Fr = qw/(gH3)1/2 < 1 the flow slow and deep and is termed subcritical; if on the
other hand Fr > 1 the flow is swift and shallow and is termed supercritical. The
great majority of flows in alluvial rivers are subcritical, but supercritical flows
do occur. Supercritical flows are common during floods in steep bedrock rivers.

26
COMPUTATION OF BACKWATER CURVES
The case of constant bed slope S is considered as an example.
Let water discharge qw and bed slope S be given.
In the case of constant bed friction coefficient Cf, let Cf be given.
In the case of Cf specified by the Manning-Strickler relation, let r and ks be given.
Compute Hc:
Compute Hn
:
If Hn > Hc then (Fr)n < 1: normal flow is subcritical, defining a “mild” bed slope.
If Hn < Hc then (Fr)n > 1: normal flow is supercritical, defining a “steep” bed slope.

Water surface elevation  =  + H (remember H is measured normal to the bed, but
is nearly vertical as long as S << 1). Note that Fr < 1 at x1: integrate upstream.
Starting and normal (equilibrium) flows are subcritical.
As H increases downstream, both Sf and Fr decrease toward 0.
Far downstream, dH/dx = S  d/dx = d/dx(H + ) = constant: ponded water
As H decreases upstream, Sf approaches S while Fr remains < 1.
Far upstream, normal flow is approached.

Note that Fr < 1 at x1; integrate upstream. Starting and normal (equilibrium) flows

As H decreases downstream, both Sf and Fr increase, and Fr increases toward 1.
At some point downstream, Fr = 1 and dH/dx = - : free overfall (waterfall).
As H increases upstream, Sf approaches S while Fr remains < 1.
Far upstream, normal flow is approached.

Note that Fr > 1 at x1; integrate downstream. The starting flow is supercritical, but
the equilibrium (normal) flow is subcritical, requiring an intervening hydraulic jump.
As H increases downstream, both Sf and Fr decrease, and Fr decreases toward 1.
At the point where Fr would equal 1, dH/dx would equal . Before this state is
reached, however, the flow must undergo a hydraulic jump to subcritical flow.
Subcritical flow can make the transition to supercritical flow without a hydraulic
jump; supercritical flow cannot make the transition to subcritical flow without one.
Hydraulic jumps are discussed in more detail in Chapter 23.

In addition to M1, M2, and M3 curves, there is also the family of steep S1, S2 and S3
curves corresponding to the case for which Hc > Hn (normal flow is supercritical).
These curves tend to be very short, and are not covered in detail here.

33
CALCULATION OF BACKWATER CURVES
Here the case of subcritical flow is considered, so that the direction of integration is
upstream. Let x1 be the starting point where H1 is given, and let x denote the step
length, so that xn+1 = xn - x. (Note that xn+1 is upstream of xn.) Furthermore, denote
the function [S-Sf(H)]/(1 – Fr2(H)] as F(H). In an Euler step scheme,
