CE 9253 APPLIED HYDRAULICS ENGINEERING L T P C
3 1 0 4
OBJECTIVE:
To introduce the students to various hydraulic engineering problems like open channel flows
and hydraulic machines. At the completion of the course, the student should be able to relate
the theory and practice of problems in hydraulic engineering.
UNIT I OPEN CHANNEL FLOW 12
Steady uniform flow - Best hydraulic sections for uniform flow - Specific energy and specific
force.
UNIT II STEADY GRADUALLY VARIED FLOWS 13
Dynamic equation - Water surface flow profile classifications - Profile determination by
graphical method, direct step method and standard step methods.
UNIT III RAPIDLY VARIED FLOWS 11
Hydraulic jumps - Types - Energy dissipation - Surges and surge through channel transitions.
UNIT IV TURBO MACHINES 13
Turbines – Classification - Reaction turbines – Francis turbine, Radial flow turbines, draft tube
and cavitation - Propeller and Kaplan turbines - Impulse turbines - Performance of turbines -
Similarity laws; Centrifugal pumps - Minimum speed to start the pump – NPSH - Cavitation in
pumps - Operating characteristics - Multistage pumps.
UNIT V POSITIVE DISPLACEMENT PUMPS 11
Reciprocating pumps - Negative slip - Flow separation conditions - Air vessels, indicator
diagrams and its variations - Savings in work done - Rotary pumps.
L: 45 + T:15 TOTAL: 60 PERIODS
