Abstract

THE use of trapezoidal flumes for
water measurement is increasing.
Research and development has shown
trapezoidal flumes in many cases to be
more adaptable and more easily constructed
than conventional rectangular
flumes. Trapezoidal flumes are used to
measure flows in natural streams and in
irrigation canals and small furrows. Results
of research on trapezoidal flumes
at the Colorado State University hydraulics
laboratory prior to 1959 have
previously been published (5)*. This
report presents the results of research
on small trapezoidal flumes for irrigation
channels.
