This document summarizes discharge calculations and checks for afflux according to Indian codes IRC:5-2015 and IRC-SP:13-2004. It calculates the discharge of a river cross section as 444.52 cubic meters per second using the area velocity method. It then checks for afflux caused by any obstructions using Molesworth's formula, finding a negative afflux of -0.177 meters since the obstructed area is larger than the unobstructed area. Finally, it states the minimum required vertical clearance is 1.200 meters according to code.

2/3 1/2 From Manning formula, V = 1 / n * (R * S ) As per eq-5.2 on Page-17 of IRC-SP:13-2004
Cross - section of the flow
Wetted Area = [(25+15.25)/2 x 3.25] + [(15.25+3.0)/2 x 0.25] + [(3.0+1.0)/2 x 1.0]
2 Wetted Area, A = 69.688 m
Wetted Perimeter, P = 5.80+6.10+1.40+1.0+1.40+6.10+5.80
27.600 m Hydraulic Mean Radius, Radius R = A/P = 69.688/27.600 69 688/27 600 = 2.525 m Rugosity Co-efficient, n = 0.013 Bed Slope, S = 1 in 500
Therefore, V = (1/0.013) x 2.525^(2/3) x (1/500)^(1/2)
= 6.379 m/s Design Discharge, Q = A x V 3 Q = 444.52 m /s 15685.99 cusecs II. Check for Afflux As per Cl. 106.6 on Page-23 of IRC:5-2015 Calculation of Afflux by using Molesworth Formula, 2 2 Afflux, H' = { (V /17.88) + 0.015} X {(A/A') - 1} 2 Unobstructed sectional area of River, A = 69.688 m
Cross - section of the flow
Sectional Area of River at Obstruction, A' = [25.0 x 3.05] + [(25.0+3.0)/2 x 0.45] + [(3.0+1.0)/2 x 1.0] - [1 x (1.50 x 3.05)] - [1 x (1/2) x 4.875 x 3.050] 2 72.541 m Afflux, H' = -0.177 m Since Obstructed area is proposed more than the un-obstructed area afflux is negative or it can be considered as zero Hence,, III. Vertical Clearence As per Cl. 106.8 on Page-23 of IRC:5-2015 Minimum Vertical Clearence required = 1.200 m
