Soil Mechanics (ECIV 3451)
Discussion of Chapter 7: Seepage
General notes:
- Flow net : series of interconnecting of flow lines and equipotential lines.
- Flow line: Line that connect between upstream and downstream .
- Equipotential line: Line that connect between points of equal head.
** Flow lines and equipotential lines intersect at right angle.
- Flow channel: The region surrounded by two consecutive flow lines .
** Flow channels segments should be square or has constant width to length ratio.
** Number of flow channels is called Nf.
- potential drop: the region surrounded by two consecutive equipotential lines.
** Number of potential drops is called Nd.
- Rate of seepage through all flow channels:
