Normal depth in open channel flow is the depth of flow in the channel ____________________?

Correct answer: A. Corresponding to uniform flow

  • A. Corresponding to uniform flow
  • B. Measured normal to the channel bed
  • C. Corresponding to steady flow
  • D. None of these

Explanation

Normal depth is the depth corresponding to uniform open-channel flow, where the depth and velocity remain constant along the channel. Steady flow only means conditions do not change with time and need not be uniform spatially.
