CV 310 - Water Resources Engineering

3 lecture hours 2 lab hours 4 credits
Water resources engineering and management can be divided into three areas of study: water supply management, water excess management, and water quality management (e.g. environmental protection). This course focuses on the first two areas, and provides students with an introduction to the analysis and design of hydrologic and hydraulic processes. Topics covered include an overview of fresh water resources (quality and quantity), the hydrologic cycle, precipitation, evaporation, infiltration, evapotranspiration, and sediment transport processes, water withdrawal and uses, and a review a basic hydraulics principles from fluid mechanics with expanded coverage of selected topics in closed conduit flow (e.g., hydroelectric power generation), and open channel flow (e.g., gradually-varied and rapidly varied flow). (prereq: AE 213 , MA 235 , MA 262 )
