Lecture 3 hours; 3 credits. Prerequisite CEE 340 (Hydraulic and Water Resources) Textbook(s) and/or Other Required Material Hydraulic Engineering, by Roberson, J. A., J. J. Cassidy and M. H. Chaudhry, John Wiley and Sons, Inc., 1998. Course Objectives Students completing this course successfully will be able to calculate flow rates and pressure heads in branching and looped pumped pipelines calculate transient pressures at various points in a pipeline due to sudden valve closure or pump stoppage use a water hammer computer program to determine the effects of valve closure time on transient pressures in a pipeline design water hammer control measures, including surge tanks, discharge tanks and air vessels analyze steady flow in open channel flows, including determination of flow depths upstream of and within contractions in width sketch and calculate gradually varied open channel flow profiles design rigid boundary and erodible channels use the HEC-RAS computer model to calculate open channel flow profiles design culverts to carry a design discharge while meeting headwater requirements analyze spillways, including calculation of rating curves and sizing spillway crests to carry a design discharge Topics Covered Centrifugal pumps and pumped pipelines (5 hours) Unsteady closed conduit flow (6 hours) Water hammer computer models (2 hours) Water hammer control (3 hours) Design of pipelines (2 hours) Steady uniform open channel flow (3 hours) Steady non-uniform open channel flow (7 hours) Design of open channels (3 hours) Open channel flow computer model: HEC-RAS (4 hours) Analysis and design of culverts (4 hours) Spillways (3 hours) Class/Laboratory Schedule Two 75-minute lecture sessions per week. Computer Applications Water hammer computer program HEC-RAS Excel spreadsheet (optional) Laboratory projects None Contribution of Course to Meeting the Professional Component College-level mathematics and basic sciences: 0 credits Engineering topics: 3 credits General education: 0 credits Relationship of Course to Program Outcomes This course will enhance the student's ability to apply knowledge in mathematics, physics, and engineering science to civil engineering problems, ability to develop design criteria to meet desired needs and to design a civil engineering system, component, or a process to satisfy these criteria ability to identify and formulate an engineering problem, to collect and analyze relevant data, and to develop a solution, ability to use modern engineering techniques, skills, and tools including computer-based tools for civil engineering analysis and design, proficiency in environmental and water resources engineering.
