2. An overflow ogee spillway of height 15m is discharging water with a head of 2m over the
crest. A reverse curvature of radius 4m, subtending an angle of 60 degree at the centre, is
provided at the spillway bottom as shown in fig. 3 . Assuming discharge coefficient for the
spillway as 2.2, determine the magnitude of the dynamic force on the curved portion AB of
the spillway.
Fig. 3
Solution:
The discharge over the spillway is given by
Q = C.L.H3/2
Discharge per unit length
q = C.H3/2
= 2.2 * 23/2 = 6.23 cumec/m.
Let d1 and d2 be the water depths, V1 and V2 be flow velocities at A and B respectively.
Neglecting any loss of energy and the head due to velocity of approach and applying
Bernoulli's theorem between upstream surface and at sections A and B respectively we get,

=17.06 m/s
V2 = q/d2

Equating (iii) and (iv) we get
Absence of negative sign indicates that the assumed direction of F is correct. i.e vertically
upward.
Resultant force =
= 122661 N.
Hence the resultant dynamic force is equal to 122661 N and acts at an angle tan1
(106894/60162)= 60o.6o with horizontal in the upward direction as shown in the figure
