Summary of Test Method4.1 The slope-area method is used to indirectly determinethe discharge through a reach of channel, usually after a flood,using evidence left by the event and the physical characteristicsof the channel reach

28、. A field survey is made to determinedistances between and elevations of high-water marks and todefine cross sections of the stream. These data are used tocompute the fall in the water surface between sections andselected properties of the sections. This information is usedalong with Mannings n in t

29、he Manning equation to computethe discharge, Q. The Manning equation in terms of discharge,Q, is as follows:Q 51.486nAR2/3Sfor Q5 KSfThe symbols on the right sides of the equations are definedin Section 3.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is particularly useful for determiningthe discharge

30、 when it cannot be measured directly by sometype of current meter to obtain velocities and with soundingweights to determine the cross section.5.2 Even under optimum conditions, the personnel availablecannot cover all points of interest during a major flood. Fieldpersonnel cannot always obtain relia

31、ble results by directmethods if the stage is rising or falling very rapidly, if flowingice or debris interferes with depth or velocity measurements.5.3 Under the worst conditions, access roads are blocked,cableways and bridges may be washed out, and knowledge ofthe flood frequently comes too late to

32、 obtain direct measure-ments of flow. Therefore, some type of indirect measurement isnecessary. The slope-area method is a commonly used method.6. Apparatus6.1 The equipment generally used for a “transit-stadia”survey is recommended. An engineers transit, a self-levelinglevel with azimuth circle, ne

33、wer equipment using electroniccircuitry, or other advanced surveying instruments may beused. Standard level rods, a telescoping, 25-ft (7.6 m) level rod,rod levels, hand levels, steel and metallic tapes, tag lines (smallwires with markers fixed at known spacings), vividly coloredflagging, survey sta

34、kes, a camera (preferably stereo) with colorfilm, light meter, and ample note paper are necessary items.6.2 Additional equipment that may expedite a survey in-clude axes, shovels, a portable drafting machine, a boat withoars and motor, hip boots, waders, rain gear, nails, soundingequipment, two-way

35、radios, ladder, and rope.6.3 Safety equipment should include life jackets, first aidkit, drinking water, and pocket knives.7. Sampling7.1 Sampling as defined in Terminology D 1129 is notapplicable in this test method.8. Calibration8.1 The surveying instruments, levels and transits, etc.,should have

36、their adjustment checked before each use andpossibly daily when in continuous use or after some occurrencethat may have affected the adjustment.8.2 The standard check is the “two-peg” or“ double-peg”test. If the error is over 0.03 ft in 100 ft (0.9 cm in 30.5 m), theinstrument should be adjusted. Th

37、e two-peg test and how toadjust the instrument are described in many surveying text-books and in instructions provided by the manufacturer. Referto manufacturers manual for the electronic instruments.8.3 If the “reciprocal leveling” technique is used in thesurvey, it is the equivalent of the two-peg

38、 test between each ofthe two successive hubs.8.4 Sectional and telescoping level rods should be checkedvisually at frequent intervals to be sure sections are notseparated. A proper fit at each joint can be quickly checked bymeasurements across the joint with a steel tape.8.5 All field notes of the t

39、ransit-stadia survey should bechecked before proceeding with the computations.9. Procedure9.1 Selection of a reach of channel is the first and probablythe most important step to obtain reliable results. Ideal reachesrarely exist; so the various elements in a reach must beevaluated and compromises ma

40、de so that the best reachavailable is selected.7Selection soon after the flood event isrecommended because livestock, humans, heavy rain, and banksloughing can destroy high-water marks.9.1.1 Good high-water marks are essential for good results.At times a reach with poor quality marks must be used be

41、causeof other complicating factors such as inflow, proximity to agaging station, etc. List high-water marks in a format such asshown in Fig. 2.9.1.2 The nearer the reach to a uniform channel the better.Marked changes in channel shape should be avoided becauseof uncertainties regarding the value of t

42、he expansion/contraction loss coefficient ( k) and the friction losses in thereach. Changes in channel conveyance should be fairly uni-form from section to section to be consistent with the assump-tion that the mean conveyance is equal to the geometric meanof the conveyances at the end sections.9.1.

43、3 A reach with flow confined to a roughly trapezoidalchannel is desirable because roughness coefficients have beendetermined for such shapes. However, compound channels,those with overbank flow, for example, can be used if they areproperly subdivided into subareas that are approximatelytrapezoidal.9

44、.1.4 A straight reach that contracts is preferred, but bothconditions seldom exist in the same reach. Whether or not areach is contracting or expanding depends solely upon thedifference in velocity head (Dhv) between sections. The reachis contracting if the difference in the velocity head is negativ

45、e.The reach is expanding if the velocity-head difference ispositive.9.1.5 Cross sections are assumed to be carrying water inaccordance with the conveyance for each part of the section.7Benson, M. A., and Dalrymple, Tate, “Measurement of Peak Discharge by theSlope-Area Method,” Techniques of Water Re

46、sources Investigations, Book 3,Chapter . U.S. Geological Survey, 1967.D 5130 95 (2008)3Therefore, the channel for some distance upstream should besimilar to that of the reach. Then the discharge will bedistributed in relation to depths, roughness, and shape. If theupstream section is located too clo

47、se to a sharp bend, a bridgethat constricts the width, or a natural constriction, slack water,or even an eddy may occupy part of the section; and the sectionwill not be effective in carrying water downstream in propor-tion to the computed conveyance.9.1.6 Channels in mountainous areas may be very ro

48、ugh andsteep and may have free fall over riffles and boulders. TheManning equation is not applicable when free fall exists.However, free fall may or may not be indicated by thehigh-water profiles or by inspection of the reach. Crosssections can be located to eliminate any part of a reach inwhich fre

49、e fall is indicated. If the reach includes stretches inwhich free fall might have occurred, the computed dischargesare not reliable.9.1.7 The reach should be long enough to develop a fall thatis well beyond the range of error in the surveying method, inalternative interpretations of the high-water profile, or inuncertainties related to the computation of the velocity head.One suggested criteria is that the fall in the reach should be 0.5ft (0.15 m) or greater than the velocity head in the reach, orboth.9.2 Cross sections represent the geometry of a reach
