Determination of the Flow Velocity Resistance in Non- Submerged Woody Plants
Abstract: Vegetation on the bank of a river or stream has a major influence on resistance, velocity distribution,and turbulence force. The resistance to flow in open channels depends on different channel and flow parameters. Out of many factors, vegetation is the mainly important parameter in open channels. In this study have been five points to measure the velocity in the channel. The experimental work has been done by a rectangular channel …
