OBJECTIVESIdentify the unique vocabulary used in the description and analysis of fluid flow with an emphasis on fluid discharge
Describe and discuss how fluid flow discharge devices affects fluid flow.
Derive and apply the governing equations associated with fluid discharge
Determine the power of flow in a channel or a stream and how this can be affected by height, pressure, and/or geometrical properties.

In the foregoing analysis it has been assumed that• the velocity of the liquid approaching the notch is very small so that its
kinetic energy can be neglected• the velocity through any horizontal element across the notch will
depend only on the depth below the free surface
These assumptions are appropriate for flow over a notch or a weir in the side of a large reservoir
If the notch or weir is located at the end of a narrow channel, the velocity of approach will be substantial and the head h producing flow will be increased by the kinetic energy;

Therefore, a perfect turbine-generator would generate 83,400 kW of electricity from this resource. The electric power generated by the actual unit is
KV
Also, both points ➀ and ➁ are open to the atmosphere (P1 = P2 = Patm) and the flow velocities are negligible at both points (V1 = V2 = 0). Then the energy equation for steady, incompressible flow reduces to
hturbine ,e
= z1− h

Substituting, the extracted turbine head and the corresponding turbine power are
hturbine ,e
= z1− h
