Influences Of Exposure On Pan Evaporation In A Mountainous Area, Eugene L. Peck
Influences Of Exposure On Pan Evaporation In A Mountainous Area, Eugene L. Peck
Reports
The effects of exposure on pan evaporation rates were studied at the Davis County Experimental Watershed near Farmington, Utah, by operating a network of 12 class A evaporation stations on the watershed during the summer months of 1962 through 1966. Standard Weather Bureau observations on a daily basis were obtained from a total of 17 different sites representing widely idverse topography with a vertical range of 4, 630 feet. Deviations from mean relations with elevation on monthly values of observed meteorological factors were found to be related to the type of exposure. Dewpoint observations on different slopes were found to …
Subcritical Flow Over Highway Embankments, Gaylord V. V. Skogerboe, M. Leon Hyatt
Subcritical Flow Over Highway Embankments, Gaylord V. V. Skogerboe, M. Leon Hyatt
Reports
Introduction: At Utah State University, considerable effort has been devoted to the analysis of submerged flow at open channel constrictions. A method of analyzing subcritical (submerged) flow has been developed for flumes. Because of previous findings, it was felt that this method of analyzing submerged flow could be applied to highway embankments. A highway embankment, when overtopped by flood waters, is a form of broad-crested weir. Being a weir, the flood discharge over the embankment is only a function of the upstream depth for free flow conditions. This paper will present a method for determining the discharge under submerged flow …

Mathematical Simulation Of Small Watershed Hydrologic Phenomena, V. V. Dhruva Narayana, Jay M. Bagley
Mathematical Simulation Of Small Watershed Hydrologic Phenomena, V. V. Dhruva Narayana, Jay M. Bagley
Reports
In many hydrologic investigations concerning small watersheds, data and observations are totally inadequate to provide a basis for outflow hydrographs. Consequently, a variety of empirical approaches have been developed which have limited rational validity. Hydrograph synthesis offers a reasonable approach to predicting the outflow hydrograph characteristics. In order to synthesize a hydrograph, it is necessary to mathematically describe the physical behavior of the dynamic processes involved in the hydrologic phenomena. Hydrograph synthesis may be considered to comprise (a) hydrographs (actual or simulated) of precipitation, (b) hydrographs of abstractions such as interception, infiltration, and depressional storage, (c) routing or translating the …

Rectangular Cutthroat Flow Measuring Flumes, Gaylord V. V. Skogerboe, M. Leon Hyatt
Reports
Introduction: Procedures and methods for more accurate measurement and improved management of water are continually being sought to make better use of our water resources. Of all the devices and structures developed for measuring water, measuring flumes are among the most widely accepted and used. The most common measuring flume is the Parshall flume developed by Ralph Parshall at Colorado State University. Common to most flumes is the basic geometry consisting of a converging inlet section, a throat, and a diverging outlet section. Occasionally, the diverging outlet section is removed under free flow conditions, and the water is allowed to …

Application Of An Electronic Analog Computer For The Simulation Of Hydrologic Events On A Southwest Watershed, J. Paul Riley, Duane G. Chadwick
Reports
The hydrologic characteristics of watersheds in semiarid regions are dependent upon many variable and often interrelated factors. A quantitative knowledge of these factors and of their relative influence upon the system as a whole is needed in order to improve the efficiency of watershed management in these areas. In an attempt to develop a comprehensive simulation model of a semiarid watershed, research workers in the Agricultural Research Service considered the electronic quently signed with Utah State University. Analog modeling concepts are based upon the development of basic relationships which describe the various processes which occur within the surface hydrologic system …
Analysis Of Submergence In Flow Measuring Flumes, Gaylord V. V. Skogerboe, M. Leon Hyatt
Analysis Of Submergence In Flow Measuring Flumes, Gaylord V. V. Skogerboe, M. Leon Hyatt
Reports
Submerged flow exists in a measuring flume when a change in flow depth downstream from the flume causes a change in flow depth upstream for any particular constant value of discharge. When a change in tailwater depth does not affect the upstream depth, free flow exists. To evaluate the discharge under free-flow conditions, it is necessary to measure only a flow depth upstream from the contracted section (throat) of the flume, whereas two flow depths must be measured to evaluate the discharge under submerged-flow conditions. The two flow depths normally measured when submerged flow exists consist of the same upstream …

A Procedure For Determining The Feasibility Of Planned Conjunctive Use Of Surface And Ground Water, Barry C. Saunders
A Procedure For Determining The Feasibility Of Planned Conjunctive Use Of Surface And Ground Water, Barry C. Saunders
Reports
Improved management of water resources is one means for alleviating deficiencies in water supply. One promising management technique is integration of ground water and surface water supplies and storage unites, or planned conjunctive use. In order to assess the value of this technique in relations to a particular area or basin, it is necessary to look at the economic, hydrologic, and legal system as a whole. A planning procedure is developed which will enable feasibility to be determined at a minimum cost.
The procedure consists of determining legal constraints, estimating benefits which will accrue to additional water, estimating the quantity …

Anodic Dissolution Of Zinc In Potassium Nitrate, Martin E. Straumanis, J. L. Reed, William Joseph James
Anodic Dissolution Of Zinc In Potassium Nitrate, Martin E. Straumanis, J. L. Reed, William Joseph James
Materials Science and Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works
The apparent valence of pure zinc dissolving anodically in 3% KNO3 was determined as a function of current density, temperature, and ultrasonic agitation. The apparent valence of zinc dissolving anodically at 24°C diminishes from 2.01 ± 0.01 at low current densities to 1.86 at about 50 ma and remains fairly constant up to about 80 ma cm−2. This valence is affected to some extent by the preparation, e.g., polishing of the electrode, but is independent of its structure (mono- or polycrystal). Ultrasonic vibrations do not influence the apparent valence at high current densities. In all cases a black film …

Estimating Water Yields In Utah By Principal Component Analysis, Leei-Luoh Wang, A. Leon Huber
Reports
The basic hydrologic data required to determine the water yield are usually unavailable for small basins and streams while increasing emphasis is being placed on their development. Therefore, some methods and techniques for estimating the amount of water available for development of these small units is needed. The purpose of this study is to use the concepts and techniques of statistical analysis to develop equations which are useful in estimating the water yield of watersheds for which no stream flow records are available. The approach is an extension of earlier studies at Utah State University (1, 10) in which physiographic …

Application Of An Electronic Analog Computer To The Problems Of River Basin Hydrology, J. Paul Riley, Duane G. Chadwick
Application Of An Electronic Analog Computer To The Problems Of River Basin Hydrology, J. Paul Riley, Duane G. Chadwick
Reports
As demands upon available water supplies increase, there is an accompanying increase in the need to assess the downstream consequences resulting from chances at specific locations within a hydrologic system. This problem was approached by electronic analog simulation of the hydrologic system. The complexity of a hydrologic model depends to a large extent upon the magnitude of the time and spatial increments utilized in the model. The increment size selected depends upon the types of problems to be solved. Three models are described, and in each succeeding model the definition in terms of time and/or space is improved. While the …

Summary: Groundwater development frequently provides a means whereby tremendous new economic opportunities are opened up. If supplies are overdrawn (mined) the ensuing regional economy may be able to affort replacements from more costly sources. In the United States the Salt River Valley of Arizona and the valleys of California provide examples. Two cases are treated in this paper, Israel and West Pakistan. In Israel, besides furnishing more than half of the basic source of water suppply, groundwater development provides opportunity for both quantity and quality management, which makes possible use of surface supplies and reclaimed sewage as firm rather than …
Feasibility Study Of A Capacitance-Type Electronic Sediment-Sensing Device, C. Earl Israelsen, Duane G. Chadwick
Feasibility Study Of A Capacitance-Type Electronic Sediment-Sensing Device, C. Earl Israelsen, Duane G. Chadwick
Reports
Difficulties caused by sediment carried in natural streams have existed since earliest times. Although instruments and techniques for measuring stream discharge have existed for many years, only recently have attempts been made to measure sediment carried by the streams. The earliest observations of sediment discharge in the United States were made by Captain Talcott in the Mississippi River in 1838 (1). More or less continuous samples of sediment from the Rio Grande have been collected by the United States Geological Survey since 1879, and from the Colorado River Basin since 1925. Studies of sediment transport are seriously hampered by the …

Estimation Of Regional Trends In Gravity Using Gram Orthogonal Polynomials, Stanley Dean Thompson
Estimation Of Regional Trends In Gravity Using Gram Orthogonal Polynomials, Stanley Dean Thompson
Masters Theses
"A computer program is presented which estimates the trend in a rectangular array of gravity measurements. It is assumed that the regional trend of gravity may be estimated by a low-order polynomial. The method of least-squares is applied to solve for the low-order polynomial which best approximates this trend. Gram orthogonal polynomials are used in the solution of this least-squares surface fit. The program is tested on a known polynomial and on some hypothetical Bouguer gravity data and found to approximate the ʺregional trend of gravity in these cases. The importance of eliminating any significant noise in the observations before …
