Permits intellegent use
Reduces excessive loss
Allows distribution according to needs and rights
Necessary for monitoring and evaluation of irrigation projects
Efficient water use depends on measurement
Reduced cost due to leached nutrients
Reduced environmental impact from over-irrigation
Purpose of measuring irrigation water
– Regulatory – Billing

Units of water measurement
04/18/2023Md. Nurul Kadir Lecturer, Dept. of Agril. Engg. SAU Dhaka
Water measured under two conditions:i.At rest (reservoir, ponds, soil) in units of volumeii.In motion (pipe, canal, river) in rates
Units of volume: litre, m3, ha-cmUnits of rate: l/s, cumec, cusec, ha-cm/h
• Volume: length3
• Flow Rate (Q): volume/time• Velocity: length/time• Area: length2

Weirs
04/18/2023Md. Nurul Kadir Lecturer, Dept. of Agril. Engg. SAU Dhaka
A weir is an overflow structure installed perpendicular to open channel flow• Has a unique depth of water at an upstream measuring point for each
discharge• If the water springs clear of downstream face, acts as sharp-crested weir• A long, raised channel control crest is a broad-crested weir
![Page 17: Agen 159 lec 6](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062712/55d284b9bb61ebf8098b4690/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Weirs
04/18/2023Md. Nurul Kadir Lecturer, Dept. of Agril. Engg. SAU Dhaka
• Usually named for the shape of the overflow opening– Rectangular– Triangular– Cipolletti
• Lowest elevation on overflow is zero reference elevation for measuring h
Rectangular weirs can be either contracted or suppressed• Suppressed weirs use side of flow
channel for weir ends– No side contraction occurs– Often used in divide boxes
Side slope: 1 horizontal 4 vertical

Limitations in using weirs
• Not accurate unless proper conditions are met
• Requires considerable head loss• Difficult to combine with turnout
structures• Not suitable for water carrying silt

Parshall Flume
04/18/2023Md. Nurul Kadir Lecturer, Dept. of Agril. Engg. SAU Dhaka
Open channel type measuring deviceSelf cleaning deviceMay be free flow or submerged flowReasonably accurate even under
submerged condition
If ha =up stream head and hb = down stream head
Degree of submergence
Free flow depends on flume size and degree of submergence

Cut-throat flume
04/18/2023Md. Nurul Kadir Lecturer, Dept. of Agril. Engg. SAU Dhaka
Improved version of Parshall flumeFlat bottom, vertical wall and zero throatNo throat, so cut-throat (Skogerboe, Hyatt, Anderson & Eggleston, 1967)For free flow: critical depth at throatAt critical flow: u/s depth ha unaffected by d/s depth hb
Free flow depends on flume size and submergence ratio
For free flow:
Q = flow rateC = free flow coefficientn = exponent depends on flume length
For submerged flow both ha and hb required for Q
