A study of boundary shear stress, flow resistance and momentum transfer in open channels with simple and compound trapezoidal cross sections

The characteristics of fully developed turbulent flow in smooth open channels of simple trapezoidal cross-section have been examined experimentally in the range 0.5 < Fr < 3.5,1.9 x 104 < Re < 6.2 x 105 and 0.3 < 2b/H < 15.0. Subcritical flow in a compound trapezoidal channel has a...
