DESIGN OF ERODIBLE
CHANNELS
2
Introduction
Under the gravitational Irrigation system the water is conveyed
from the source to the field level through irrigation canal.
The source of water for irrigation is available from River, Reservoir,
Lakes and Tanks. Flow Irrigation may be Diversion type, Storage,
Perennial and Inundation etc.
Irrigation canals are generally Trapezoidal in shape, constructed at
the highest elevation for batter command. The channel could be
cutting or filling.

Steps Required to Design Canal by Kennedy’s Theory
i) Assume a trial value of Depth ‘y’
ii) Find the velocity by the equation V = 0.55 mr y0.64
iii) Find Flow Area A =Q/V
iv) Find ‘B’ from ‘A’ = (B + zy) y
Where ‘A’ is known from step (3), ‘z’ is assumed or given, ‘y’ is
assumed in step (1)
v) Find P = B +2y √1 + z2
vi) Find R =A/P
vii) Now find velocity ‘V’ by Kutter’s equation
viii)If the velocity obtained in step (ii) and in step (vii) are not almost
equal, assume second trail values of Depth ‘y’ and report steps (i)
to (viii) above.

Steps Required to Design Canal by Kennedy’s Theory
ix) Repeat this process, until velocity in step (ii) = velocity in step
(vii). The value of ‘y’ at which the two velocities are almost same,
is the required depth of flow.
x) Find ‘B’ when ‘y’ is known.
xi) Assume a reasonable free board (FB). Usually 0.6 when Q < 10
m3/sec and (FB) > 0.75 when Q > 100 m3/sec
This trial and error method is very tedious and assumption of first
trial values of ‘y’ is very difficult. The design of canal by Kennedy’s
theory can be designed from Garret’s diagram which provide a
graphical solution of Kennedy’s equation.

in alluvial soil to carry a discharge of 30m3/sec in bed slope of 1/5000.

Lacey’s Regime Theory
Better and modified method was developed by G. Lacey. His
regime theory postulates that dimensions of bed width, depth and
shape attain a state of equilibrium called Regime State.
Lacey has defined a Regime Channel as a stable Channel
transporting a minimum bed load consistent with fully active bed.
According to his theory a channel will be in regime if it carries a
constant Discharge and it flows uniformly in unlimited incoherent
alluvium of the same character.
Lacey also differentiated between initial and final regime condition
of channel. The initial condition is attained shortly after it is put
into operation after construction and the canal begins to adjust its
bed slope either by silting or scouring although bed width is not
changed.

Lacey’s Regime Theory
The canal then appears to have attained stability, but it is not
actually the final state of stability and hence, it still represents the
initial regime condition.
Eventually continuous action of water overcomes the resistance of
the banks and sets up a condition such that the canal adjusts its
complete section. At this stage the final or true regime condition is
attained.

Sediment Transportation
in Irrigation Channels
27
Sediment and its Transport
Sediment in transport in open canal plays an important role and
exerts as great influence on the attainment of regime in earthen
canals. Excessive silt in the canal get deposited in the bed, thereby
reducing the discharge capacity of the canal.
On the other hand, silt-free water flowing in earthen canals in
regime would tend to scour the bed until a new regime is
established.
Therefore, a regime channel should be capable of transporting the
total sediment load and there should be no silting nor scouring.
However, practically it is very difficult to attain this situation
particularly when the channel is newly constructed.

Development of Canal Bed
After water starts flowing in a canal, its bed adopts various shapes
depending upon the velocity of flow.
At a very low velocity, there is no movement in the canal bed. With
the increase in velocity, the sediments start moving. The stage at
which the movement starts, is called ‘threshold of motion’.
If the bed is made of fine sand, saw tooth ripples start to appear in
the bed. With the increase in velocity, the saw tooth get rounded off
and become dunes with ripples. With further increase in velocity,
they take the shape of rounded dunes.
With increase in velocity the dunes disappear and flat surface
appears. Further increase in velocity will now form sand waves in
association with surface waves. Still further increase in velocity
will result in movement of wave systems and formation of sand
waves, called antinodes. At this stage Froude’s number
approaches unity.

Sediment Load
The sediment moving in a canal can be broadly divided into two
parts namely bed load and suspended load. Bed load is that parts
of the sediment load which due to its size and weight does not go
in suspension in the moving water but moves along with the bed of
the canal. This load moves forward by rolling, sliding or salutation,
i.e. non-moving bed.
Suspended load is that part of the sediment load whose particles
being small in size and weight, are thrown in suspension with the
increase in the velocity of moving water in the channel. A particle is
thrown in suspension by the upward component of the turbulent
eddies.
This load does not move in contact with the bottom thought there
may be a continuous interchange of particles from the bed. In this
process some grains are dropped while others go in suspension.
