But in practice, all these conditions can never be satisfied. And, therefore,
artificial channels can never be in 'true regime; they can either be in initial regime
or final regime.

Problem:
The slope of an irrigation channel is 0.2 per thousand. Laceys silt factor = 1.0,
channel side slope = : 1. Find the full supply discharge and dimensions of
the channel.

Hence silt factor will be reduced to 0.7454 by not allowing coarser silt to enter the
canal system by providing silt ejectors and silt excluders.

i.e. silt having mean diameter > 0.179 mm will not be allowed to enter the canal
system.
The resistance to flow due to this difference of pressure on the two sides of the
mound is called form resistance.
Lacey termed this loss as shock loss, which is different from frictional resistance
or tangential drag.
Shock loss = f (size, shape and spacing of bed forms)
Total resistance = frictional resistance + form resistance (i.e. shock loss)
(due to bed)
(due to irregularities)
Lacey suggested:
Na should remain constant
Slope should be splitted
to overcome friction and
to meet shock loss
