Questions and Answers

What is the defining characteristic of Open Channel Flow?

  • Flow of air through a closed pipe
  • Flow of fluid in a pressurized system
  • Flow of water or fluid through a channel with a free surface exposed to the atmosphere (correct)
  • Flow of water in a sealed container
  • In Open Channel Flow, the flow occurs through channels such as rivers, streams, canals, and drainage ditches, which are examples of:

  • Underground tunnels
  • Channels with exposed surfaces (correct)
  • Pressurized pipelines
  • Closed conduits
  • What differentiates Open Channel Flow from Closed Conduit Flow?

  • Presence of free surface (correct)
  • Controlled flow regimes
  • Pressurized flow
  • Underground flow
