Which of the following statements in the context of a circular sewer of full depth ‘D’ is correct?
Question

Which of the following statements in the context of a circular sewer of full depth ‘D’ is correct?

A.

Maximum velocity is 20% higher than that when running full.

B.

Maximum discharge is obtained when depth of flow is 0.95 D.

C.

Maximum velocity is obtained when depth of flow is 0.95 D.

D.

Maximum discharge is obtained when depth of flow is 0.81 D.

Correct option is B

For a circular section (a section which is converging on the top), hydraulic efficiency depends upon:
i) Maximum Velocity
 y = 0.81 × d
 R = 0.30 × d
2) Maximum discharge
 y = 0.95 × d
 R = 0.29 × d
d = diameter of the circular pipe
y = hydraulic depth
R = hydraulic radius
