Open Channel Flow Calculations

The document appears to be a computation sheet for calculating the water surface profile of an open channel with a discharge of 0.334 m3/s. It includes calculations of water depth, velocity, energy, slope, and water surface elevation at 25 stations along the channel. The calculations result in a gradual decrease in water surface elevation from 1339.3 m at the first station to 1338.4 m at the last station shown, indicating a mild channel slope.
