B) Design of Weir, Provide Visual ILLUSTRATION (EG: Channel Height, Weir Height, Angle, Weir Width)

The document describes two types of weirs - rectangular and V-notch weirs. For rectangular weirs, the width of the weir (b) does not change with the head height (h) over the weir. For V-notch weirs, the relationship between the weir width (b) and head height (h) depends on the angle (θ) of the V-shape. Key parameters including channel width (B), weir height (p), and maximum expected head (hu max) are also defined.

b does not change with h so there is no relationship between b and h.

B is the width of the channel


b is the width of the weir
h is the head over the weir
p is the weir height
hu max is the maximum expected head over the weir

V-NNOTCH WEIR

FOR THE "V" NOTCH WEIR THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN WIDTH AND DEPTH IS DEPENDENT ON THE ANGLE OF
THE "V".

B is the width of the channel


b is the width of the weir
h is the head over the weir
p is the weir height
hu max is the maximum expected head over the weir
is the ngle of the weir
