EDI TOR,S PREFACE
During the several decades since Dean Nephi
Christensen asked me to give a course in fluid mechanics at
Colorado State in the summer of 1940 , three parallel occur-
rences have taken place: I have watched with respect the
exponential growth that the institution has exhibited. I
have become convinced that the various influences which
lead to the effectiveness of any prominent institution should
be properly documented . And, with the continued passage
of time, I have seen the evidence on which such docu-
mentation must be based steadily disappear .
As a result , when Dean Simons invited me to spend my
summers at Fort Collins as visiting professor following re-
tirement from the University of Iowa, I suggested that part
of my new duties be the production of a booklet telling the
story of how hydraulics, fluid mechanics, hydrology, and
related fields achieved the position they now hold at CSU.
The preparation of such booklets at my own institution, not
to mention my great interest in the history of my profes-
sion, had already given me an appreciable amount of momen-
tum in this direction . Beyond a certain point in time,
however, those actively engaged at CSU in research admin-·
istration were logically far better versed in the recent and
current aspects of the story, and I have hence acted as
editor rather than author of the latter portion of the text -
stimulating assembly of the material by others and then
seeking to bring it to uniformity.
The eventual usefulness of such a booklet as a
historical record of accomplishment need hardly be empha-
sized. Other uses, however, are manifold. Prospective
students, in particular postgraduate, will be able to see in
detail the advantages that the institution has to offer.
Engineering organizations will have the opportunity to judge
from past accomplishments and present staff and facilities
the suitability of the Engineering Research Center for
developmental studies. And, to counteract the elimination
of perspective by proximity, workers in the different divi-
sions will have a clearer view of what is going on around
them.
Many individuals in addition to the senior staff have
assisted in making this material available . Special acknowl-
edgment is due Barbara Burke, Tamra McFall, John
Newman, Carol Stafford, Jean Steinhoff, and Eve

HISTORICAL SKETCH
In 1862 the United States Congress passed the Morrill
Act granting land to each state in the amount of 30,000
acres for every senator and representative. The receipts
from the sale of this land were to form a perpetual fund ,
the interest from which was to support "at least one college
wh ere the leading object shall be , without excluding oth er
scientific and classical studies and including military tactics,
to teach such branches of learning as are related to agricul-
ture and the mechanic arts, in such manner as the legisla -
tures of the states may respectively prescribe' in order to
promote the liberal and practical education of the industrial
classes in the several pursuits and professions in life ."
This act was passed fourteen years before Colorado
was admitted to statehood in 1876, and an even longer
period was to elapse before the act was properly imple-
mented. Hence, to what extent the Territorial Legislature
was influenced by the act can only be surmised. In any
event, in 1870 the governor signed a Territorial Bill estab -
lishing at Fort Collins the Agricultural College of Colorado,
to be governed by a Board of Agriculture of eight men , at
least four of whom had to be practicing farmers. During
the following three years , 240 acres of land were donated
locally , and a year thereafter the first building - a mere
24xl6 feet in plan - was constructed . Not till 1878 were
funds for the College actu ally appropriated, whereupon the
cornerstone of a permanent building was laid; this later
came to be known as Old Main . The following fall ~he
Old Main , no longer in existence
2 Hydraulics , Fluid Mechanics, and Hydrology at CSU
General Assembly finally accepted land-grant income, and
the initial classes were held . The enrollment rapidly grew
from five to nineteen students, with a faculty of three:
the president and two instructors . In 1881 the first dormi-
tory was erected just north of the main building, and the
first catalog was issued .
The earliest classes were necessarily preparatory, for
the primary and secondary training of the students proved
to be meager at best . Subsequent classes, moreover, were
largely practical farming - though at least one member of
James Lawrence Elwood Mead
the government was even against teaching agriculture in a
state so ill-suited to it! In such circumstances it was to be
expected that the prescribed mechanic arts would receive
little attention indeed . Even the cataloged course in mech-
anics and drawing was intended, in the words of its first
instructor , merely to provide the "much needed ability of
caring for the machinery and buildings on a farm." It is
therefore surprising that in 1882 a former MIT student from
New England , James W. Lawrence (1858-1933), was employed
to head that department. Not only did Lawrence gradually
develop a course in mechanical engineering, but he eventu-
ally served as acting president and finally as dean of the
faculty. It is equally noteworthy that the staff member who
was to play the initial role in hydraulics was originally
employed by the College - in 1882 - as an instructor in
mathematics . This was Elwood Mead (1858-1936), a Hoosier
by birth , who had studied civil engineering at Purdue and
Iowa State. In 1883 Mead received approval of his proposal
Historical Sketch 3
to teach a two-term senior course on irrigation, one term to
be "devoted to the pressure and flow of water , and methods
of determining the same ; 11 and the other "to the survey and
construction of canals and reservoirs. 11 That year Mead
also became assistant state engineer doing practical field
work in irrigation.
After a two-year interval , during which he obtained an
M. S. degree from Purdue, Mead was appointed to a full
professorship in irrigation engineering. His perceptive
remarks in this regard are significant: "In establishing the
chair of Irrigation Engineering , the College has taken the
initiative in what must soon be an important branch of
industrial training in all technical schools of the arid region
.. . . In this State the rapidity with which our agricultural
possibilities are being developed, and the peculiar difficul-
ties in the way of the promotion of better laws and prac-
tices, make the need of educated farmers greater than that
of highly trained engineers, though both are essential."
Unfortunately for the College, Mead was impossible to
hold very long, and in 1888 he left for Wyoming , where he
wrote the first irrigation code. He was subsequently
employed by the U.S . Department of Agriculture, the
Australian Water Supply Commission, ·the University of
California , and finally the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, with
which he served a dozen years as commissioner. The lake
above Hoover Dam now bears his name - not to mention the
chair of water resources at CSU .
Barely a year before Mead's departure , Congressional
passage of the Hatch Act provided financial incentive for
establishing the Agricultural Research Station and institut-
ing a graduate program at the College . Study toward the
master's degree was initially restricted to research at the
Station. However, the first M. S. in engineering was
awarded in 1893, and the catalog of that year indicated that
the advanced degrees of Civil Engineer and Mechanical
Engineer could also be earned.
Mead's replacement at Fort Collins was Louis G .
Carpenter (1861-1935) , a Michigander by both birth and
education, who had substituted for Mead during the latter's
absence from the campus, and established a weather station
as well as observations of evaporation . His influence on
irrigation instruction and practice was just as effective as
Mead's but of far longer duration. He h eaded the new
Department of Civil and Irrigation Engineering (which was
housed from 1893 on in the original dormitory building
4 Hydraulics, Fluid Mechanics, and Hydrology at CSU
north of Old Main, now Spruce Hall), founded the American
Society of Irrigation Engineers, twice declined the presi-
dency of the College, assumed the directorship ·of the
College Agricultural Station, designed the Greeley-Poudre
irrigation system, became an authority on the legal aspects
of irrigation , and finally resigned in 1911 ( unfortunately
under pressure) to form a consulting firm with a brother,
"Delph" Carpenter of Greeley.

In view of earlier opposition to the teaching of the
mechanic arts (if not of agriculture itself), it is refreshing
to note that the president of the College in 1906 declared
that the institution rested on "four cornerstones," agricul-
ture , civil engineering, mechanical engineering, and
domestic sci.e nce, each of which shared "equable support."
At the same time , however , there was continued dissention
between those who favored the trade-school level and those
who believed in a truly high-level institution; this was
reflected to some degree in Carpenter's resignation . It is
hence noteworthy that in 1907 a degree program in electri-
cal engineering was permanently established; in fact,
Charles A . Lory ( 1872-1969), who had come up from Boulder
to head the department of physics and applied electricity,
became president of the College only two years later - a
physical scientist rather than an agriculturist!
Just a year before Carpenter's resignation, a new
Civil and Irrigation Engineering Building had been

completed (later used for Economics , it currently furnishes
office space for the university Computer Center , Information
Systems, and Math, Statistics, and Business Departments) .
Begun in 1904 , its construction was continued as money be-
crune available , the walls going up in 1906 and the roof the
year following . Not till 1909 was the appropriation paid in
full. Equipment formerly housed in the original engineering
building - including basement tanks and scales used in
teaching hydraulics - was soon moved to its new quarters
by two members of the staff .

Carpenter's replacement as head of Civil and Irrigation
Engineering, the somewhat flamboyant Edward B. House
(1872-1944), was born in Greeley and educated at Michigan
in electrical engineering . He had joined the staff at Fort
Collins soon after graduation, and like Mead he had initially
taught mathematics. Eventually developing an interest in
irrigation, he obtained his M. S. degree in that field in
1905, and was ultimately to become the first Dean of Engi-
neering in 1933 . A graduate of the Class of 1904, Ralph L.
Parshall (1881-1959) of Golden had had a hand in laying out
the foundation of the new C&IE Building while still a
student. On receiving his degree, he first taught physics
and then became an instructor in the C&IE department (and
was one of the equipment movers already mentioned).
Edward House Ralph Parshall
In 1910 the U.S. Department of Agriculture stationed
Victor M. Cone (1883-1970) at Fort Collins to take charge of
U . S. Irrigation Investigations, Bureau of Public Roads.
This agency (forerunner of the Agricultural Research
Service) in cooperation with the Colorado Agricultural
Experiment Station was instrumental in building the new
hydraulics laboratory of the C&IE department, and in 1912
Cone and Parshall were involved in its design. The next
year Parshall was promoted to assistant professor, but then
he resigned from the College to accept a position with the
USDA - remaining in residence , however, in the C&IE build-
ing. He was replaced on the college staff by Oliver P.
Pennock ( 1879-1968), a rather reserved 1902 graduate who
40 years later was to head the department (see page 13).

In 1914 Carl H. Rohwer (1890-1958) of Nebraska and
Cornell was transferred to Fort Collins by the USDA,
whereafter Cone , Parshall , and Rohwer proceeded to make
the region - and vicariously the College - well recognized
for irrigation research.
Victor Cone Carl Rohwer
The laboratory of that period included an upper
reservoir about 85 feet in diameter and 7 feet deep on a low
hill. Three gates controlled the flow to a channel provided
with weirs and other devices, a portion of the flow being
diverted to an auxiliary tank (A) for constancy during

adjustment of head. Pumps returned the flow to the upper
reservoir. Two additional concrete tanks (X and Y)
9x24x27 feet, below floor level within the building, and a
third (Z) , 9x27x55 feet , just outside, were carefully cali-
brated for volumetric measurement against time. The year
1916 saw the construction of a 4x5x150-foot current-meter
rating tank with semi-automatic recording instrumentation
designed by Parshall ; it was later extended to 250 feet in
length . The upper reservoir was lined with copper in 1925
for Parshall's study of evaporation, which he had begun at
an earlier date in one of the concrete tanks .

In 1920 a search was made by Parshall and Rohwer for
an outdoor laboratory site, not too far from the city and
with an ample supply of water. The waste gate on Jackson
Ditch, leading from a branch of the Cache La Poudre River
near Bellvue , northwest of Fort Collins, was found to meet
their requirements , and a concrete channel 7x14x75 feet,
tapering over another 50 feet to an outlet width of 25 feet,
was connected to the gate. The latter permitted some
adjustment to the flow, and a 15-foot weir was used for
discharge measurement. It was in this channel that
Parshall developed his adaptation of the Venturi flume for
discharge measurement; patented about 1925, it became
widely known under his name and used around the world.

He also devised a vortex method for eliminating sand from
irrigation canals . Though Rohwer eventually took over
Parshall's evaporation project, his interests lay rather in
the direction of wells, seepage losses, and canal linings.
Parshall's son Maxwell (1907- ... ) , who had watched con-
struction of the original laboratory at the age of 6, worked
as a youth with his father and engineering colleagues on
many local irrigation projects. In 1929 he returned from
MIT with a degree in chemistry, and by 1937 had settled
down to running the local weather station and assisting in
the hydraulics laboratory .

In August 1930 the Bureau of Reclamation sent a dozen
engineers, technicians, and shop people from Denver to
Fort Collins to work in the laboratory which had been
designed by Cone and Parshall ·for the USDA. The Bureau
program began with a study of proposed shaft spillways for
Hoover Dam ; as a result of these tests, a change was made
from the shaft to the side-channel type of structure.
Thereafter many other studies were undertaken, in partic-
ular for the Bureau's Grand Coulee and Imperial Dams and
for the Tennessee Valley Authority's Wheeler and Norris
Dams . Emory W. Lane (1891-1963), a Hoosier who had
studied at Purdue and Cornell and then seen considerable
experience both in the States and in China, was admini-
strative head of the Fort Collins operation. This involved
two shifts during the Hoover spillway tests, under Charles
W. Thomas (1906-1978) and James W. Ball (1905- .. . ) , both
Coloradoans educated at Fort Collins . Lane later went back
to Denver , turning the Fort Collins work over to Jacob E.
Warnock (1903-1949) , a Hoosier with degrees from Purdue
and Colorado. Upon Warnock's move to Denver, Ball was
left in charge. By 1936 the laboratory had undergone a
fourfold expansion , but for political and financial reasons
the Bureau brought its work there to a close only two
years later and withdrew to its Denver quarters in the New
Customhouse .

Utah who had just obtained a Caltech doctorate under

first accomplishment was to gain accreditation (previously

Eng in eers Council for Professional Development. One of his
forme r colleagues at Caltech was the Toledoan Hunter Rouse
14 Hydraulics, Fluid Mechanics, a nd Hydrology a t CSU
(1906- .. . ) , who had just become a professor at the State
University of Iowa when h e was in vited by Christen sen to
give a 1940 s umm er class at Fort Collins in the mechanics of
fluids. This attracted some two dozen gradu ate students
(among them J. C. Steven s, later president of the ASCE,
a nd C. P. Vetter , sediment specialist of the Bureau of
Reclamation), thus becoming the first of a co ntinuin g series
of s umm er courses and conferences.

As the United States became involved in World War II ,
some college laboratories un dertook war-related r esearch ,
while other staff members mov ed to federal laboratories for
s imilar work. Christensen played an important part in the
development of rocketry at the Army's Aberdeen Proving
Groun ds, taking with him a number of the College staff - in
particular Dwight Gunder (1905-1964), a professor of engi-
neering mathematics. At the same time , on e who was to
take a leading role in later developments at CSU , Maurice
L . Albertson (1918- .. . ) , a Kansan with degrees from Iowa
State College an d the State University of Iowa, was called
back from the TV A fo the Iowa Institute of Hydraulic
Historical Sketch 15
Research for war work under Rouse. This in volved
air-tunnel tests on fog dispersal, turbulence , and jet dif-
fusion, in the course of which h e completed a doctoral dis-
sertation on boundary-layer evaporation. Since he had long
hoped to take part in th e irrigation research at Colorado
State, between Rous e and Christensen a position for him
there was arranged in 1947 . With Christensen's b acking,
one of Albertson's first accomplishm en ts at Fort Collins was
to persuade the International Engineering Company to have
the College conduct, in the laboratory previously abandoned
by the Bureau of Reclamation, tests on dams and related
structures which it h ad contracted to build in India.
Maxwell Parshall took an active part in these and subse -
quent test s, but Christensen left for a position at Cornell
at the end of the year.
Maurice Albertson Jack Cermak
This overseas project was the first of many
undertakin gs that resulted from Albertson's seemingly
unlimited en ergy and initiative over the following three
decades . The second was in effect a continuation of his
wartime work at Iowa. Jack E . Cermak (1922- .. . ) , a
native Coloradoan, h ad entered the College in 1940, but as
a r es ult of military service h e completed his undergraduate
studies just in time to become Albertson's first graduate
student. Together they obtained a grant from the Office of
Naval Research for th e construction of the College 's initial
wind tunnel, located in the west h alf of what is now the
Biochemistry and Radiation Building (see page 19) . It was
completed in 1949, and additional backing was obtained from
I
16 Hydraulics , Fluid Mechanics, and Hydrology at CSU
the ONR for the further study of evaporation . That same
year Dean F. Peterson (1913- . . . ) of Utah was appointed
head of civil engineering; with his strong promotional aid ,
and the equally strong support of the ONR and the NSF,
the organization began to display a remarkable rate of
growth. Part of the reason was their practice of employing
two or three men on one man ' s academic salary and utilizing
income from contracts and grants to make up the difference .
James R. Barton , one of Rouse's graduate students at Iowa,
joined the staff in 1992 , the year that also brought A.
Ray Chamberlain (1929- . . . ) a Michigander who became
Albertson's (and the College's) first doctoral candidate and
later chief of research. On his retirement from the Bureau
of Reclamation in 1953, Emory Lane received a temporary
appointment at Fort Collins , which he held until illness
forced cessation of his activities in 1957 ; by then he was
well along th€ road toward formulation of a general philoso-
phy of sediment transport .

In 1955 the Army Air Force granted funds for a
meteorological wind tunnel, and this became operational
alongside the first tunnel in 1963. Erich J : Plate
(1929- . .. ) of Germany , previously a graduate student, was
recalled to the staff in 1959; at first involved in wind-
tunnel design under Cermak , he later participated in atmo-
spheric modeling and diffusion studies. The U.S.
Geological Survey stationed Daryl B. Simons (1918- ... ) of
Utah at Fort Collins in 1957 to collaborate in the growing

research program on river mechanics and sediment trans-
port, to which the Nebraskan , Colorado State graduate
Everett V. Richardson (1924- ... ) , had been transferred
from Iowa by the Survey in 1956. Simons not only super-
vised the USGS program but completed work toward the
second engineering doctorate at CSU and then taught
courses in civil engineering.
Vujica Yevjevich Lionel Baldwin

The year 1957 al.so saw the change in the institution's
name to Colorado State University , not to mention the
arrival of the hydrologist Vujica Yevjevich ( 1913- .... ) , a
native of Yugoslavia who had previously headed a research
institute in his own country . The Texan Lionel Baldwin
(1932- . . .. ) came to the campus in 1961, after experience
with NACA-NASA; a chemical engineer, his specialty was
fluid turbulence. William W. Sayre (1927- .... ) of New York
and Princeton, initially a graduate student, became a mem-
ber of the USGS staff in 1962, moving to Iowa in 1968 after
receiving the doctorate; his particular interest was the
mechanics of diffusion . Hsieh-Wen Shen (1931- .... ), a
native of China who, after study at Michigan, had taken
the doctorate in sediment transport under Einstein at
Berkeley (and was to become an ASCE Freeman Scholar the
following year), arrived at Fort Collins in 1964 .

With such a staff - not to mention the considerable
support of various agencies recirculating and tilting
flumes , wave basins, and additional wind tunnels came into
being, and graduate enrollment steadily rose. The pressure
of growth inevitably prompted the construction in 1962 of a
greatly enlarged facility in the foothills of the Rockies five
miles west of the original Fort Collins campus, at about the
same time that construction of the Engineering and Student
Centers did away with the existing laboratories. By 1965
the new Engineering Research Center contained some 50, 000
square feet of laboratory floor space, plus forty acres of

with means of controlling the distribution of velocity and
temperature, and one of the new flumes conceived by
Albertson, Richardson , and Simons and constructed with
USGS and NSF funds was claimed to be the largest tilting
and recirculating facility in the country. Aside from the
laboratory's very effective programs on wind dynamics ,
open-channel flow , hydrology , and fluid mechanics in gen-
eral, the hydraulics and fluid mechanics staff actively pro-
moted summer institutes on various aspects of fluid motion
with the support of the NSF . Not only was Albertson him-
self behind the original developments , but he continued to
take some part in subsequent activities and shared in the
authorship of at least one prize-winning paper. However,
he had many other irons in the fire , particularly of an in-
ternational nature - such as the original formation of the
Peace Corps , and the establishment of the Asian Institute
of Technology at Bangkok .
In 1963 Daryl Simons left the USGS to become the head
of Civil Engineering Research and in 1965 Simons accepted
the position of Associate Dean for Res e arch and as such
became Director of the Engineering Re s earch Center and
Associate Director of the Agricultural Experiment Station .
Lionel Baldwin was appointed Dean of Engineering in 1965 ;
and in 1969 Ray Chamberlain - for several years Vice
President - assumed the post of President as the University
was preparing to celebrate its centennial year . Under Jack
Cermak's direction , another environmental wind tunnel was
added to the Fluid Dynamics and Diffusion Laboratory that
year, and two more the year following. Continuous devel-
opment of these wind-tunnel facilities and the science of
atmospheric modeling through project THEMIS resulted in
the laboratory becoming recognized as a world center for
wind-engineering research. Erich Plate, who had been
closely associated with the wind-tunnel investigations, left
in 1970 to accept one of the chairs in hydraulic engineering
at the University of Karlsruhe.
In the same period a large outdoor rainfall-runoff
facility with an area of 25,000 square feet was constructed
under Vujica Yevjevich' s direction ; fed by 400 irrigation
sprinklers of variable capacity, rainfall and runoff measure-
ments versus space and time are now reduced to their sig-
nificant form by computer . Under Albertson , interest in
water resources had gradually developed , and two special-
ists were finally added to the staff to strengthen that

Iowa, and Warren A. Hall (1919- .. . ) of South Dakota and
California, both of whom were broadly experienced in the
field, including service with the government; Hall, it should
be noted , became in 1973 the first to hold the newly en-
dowed Elwood Mead Professorship . In 1963 Professor J. W.
N. Fead (1923- . . . ) , a member of the Civil Engineering De-
partment originally from Canada, succeeded Milton E.
Bender (1916- ... ) as chairman when the latter assumed the
presidency of the Asian Institute of Technology. The fall
of 1979 saw the departure of Yevjevich for George
Washington University, though he retained a quarter-time
appointment at CSU .
As of September 1979 the staff of the combined
hydraulics , fluid mechanics, and hydrology sections of the
Civil Engineering Department has grown to a total member-
ship of 125. Of these, 33 are of faculty rank , i.e. , assis-
tant professor or above, and 92 are graduate assistants.
The hydraulics section is largest, with 69 members , and
fluid mechanics next with 36. About 55% of all graduate
students in the Department are employed part-time, with an
annual turnover of some 40-50%.
PHYSICAL PLANT
As seen from the accompanying figures , the Engineering
Research Center occupies some 40 acres of the University
Foothills Campus, the major part of which is devoted to
experimental facilities for hydraulics , fluid mechanics , and
hydrology. The primary structure consists of a multi-wing
building: wings A and B include a basement and two stor-
ies, and provisions have been made for duplicating on A
the third story already on B ; wing W is a single story .
The three wings together provide 69,000 square feet of
Looking over Hydro-machin e ry Laboratory toward

space for offices , conference rooms, small laboratories and
electronics shops, printing, drafting, and photographic
quarters , two lecture rooms, and a cafeteria. Directly
south of the main ·wings an d connected to them are two
large laboratories each roughly 120x280 feet in plan , with a
minimum ceiling height of 22 feet , the one for hydraulics
lying to the west and that for fluid mechanics to the east.
A smaller hall between them is used for structural research .
At the south end of the hydraulics section is a well- I
equipped machine and instrument shop some 40x120 feet in
plan, serving the entire Research Center.
Permanent features of the Hydraulics Laboratory
are a series of interconnected sumps 8 feet in depth and
5,400 square feet in s urface area; 14 pumps ranging in
capacity from 250 gallons per minute at 50-foot h ead to

A 100-acre outdoor laboratory adjoins the building,
making possible large-scale model and full-scale prototype
studies. A concrete flume 8x20x180 feet with a recessed
section 10 feet deep provides a facility for large-scale
tests. A 3-foot-diameter variable-slope pipe 825 feet long
is also available. A hydro-machinery facility is housed in a

Temporary flume with models
A maximum head and discharge on the order of 200 feet and
300 cubic feet per second are available. Modifications are
currently underway that will increase the maximum available
discharge to 500 cubic feet per second. In addition, large
26 Hydraulics, Fluid Mechanics, and Hydrology at CSU
stationary and movable pumps are used to recirculate water
from sump s and to increase the operating head. Waste
water is led south to College Lake , which also serves as a
secondary supply reservoir.
The ample water supply, large head , and extensive
working area offer a unique opportunity to study problems
requiring large discharges and heads, su ch as certain types
of model tests, geomorphological studies, flume and pipe
experiments on roughness , sediment transport , turbulence,
diffusion, hydraulic machinery, valves, and related prob-
lems . In addition, a ready comparison of field and labora-
tory conditions can be made , because in the vicinity of Fort
Collins are steep mountain streams, sand-bearing rivers of
the plains , lined supply channels, and large storage
reservoirs .
The Fluid Dynamics and Diffusion Laboratory, shown
in plan, houses eight air-flow facilities of various sizes and
capabilities. The meteorological wind tunnel has an overall
length of 200 feet with a 6x6-foot test section 100 feet long.
Heating and/or cooling of the air in the 18x18-foot return-
flow section provides extreme flexibility for simulating a
wide range of atmospheric thermal stratification . Wind
speeds from O. 5 to 100 miles per hour permit boundary-
layer flows similar to thos.e of the real atmosphere to be
modeled with accuracy.

most advanced studies on turbulence and diffusion or the
applied investigations of wind engineering. This instrumen-
tation includes hot-wire-anemometer systems; electronic
pressure transducers and meters ; aerosol, radioactive-gas,
and helium and carbon concentration-measurement systems;
optical systems; and strain-gage balances. Data-processing
equipment includes an analog-to-digital converter and a
Hewlett- Packard data processor , spectral analyzers, prob-
ability-density analyzers , and a variety of special-purpose
systems .
CSU's Hydrology Laboratory consists primarily of an
outdoor rainfall-runoff facility covering 25,000 square feet
of land sloping gently toward the point of outflow.
30 Hydraulics, Fluid Mechanics, and Hydrology at CSU
Characteristics of the ground such as roughness,
permeability, and geometry can be varied to represent a
wide range of natural catchments. The simulated rainfall is
generated by 277 sprinklers , each located on top of a 10-
foot vertical pipe . Water is supplied to the sprinkler risers
by aluminum feeder lines running in parallel across the
watershed . These lines are approximately 17½ feet apart,
and each line has 20 risers 10 feet on center . Various
rainfall intensities are produced by operating different com-
binations of sprinklers controlled by electric solenoid valves
at the side of the facility. When all sprinklers are running
simultaneously, approximately 100 millimeters of rainfall per
hour is being generated . The size of the facility is evi-
dently such that it represents an intermediate step between
laboratory models and natural watersheds.
Data-processing equipment available to the Engineering
Research Center includes the following: A CYB ER 171
digital computer with 131K of 60-bit words, an NOS operat-
ing system , 5-607 7-track tape drives, and 1 billion 400
million characters of on-line storage. A CYB ER 172 digital
computer with 131K of 60-bit words, an NOS operating

characters of on-line storage. These computers can be
accessed in either batch or interactive mode. Also located
at the Research Center is a DATA 100 high-speed batch
terminal consisting of a card reader and printer.
There are 5 DEKWRITER interactive terminals located
in an interactive laboratory with a TEKTRONIX 4014-1
graphics terminal that has a dual-floppy disc un~ ard-
copy unit , and a pen plotter. Several other m teractive
terminals are located throughout the building and on cam -
pus . Support equipment such as keypunches and a hard-
copy plotter is also available . Recently , a Hewlett- Packard

The Hydraulics Section engages in broad theoretical
and applied activities that are coordinated with the
graduate-study program to provide the students with re-
search experience as well as formal instruction. A signif-
icant portion of the research is interdisciplinary, involving
other programs , departments, colleges, external agencies,
and governments, both American and foreign. Thus the
scope of the research extends well beyond the area of clas-
sical hydraulics .
Major emphasis is on research related to hydraulic ,
geomorphic, hydrologic, water-resource, and environmental
problems. Primary areas of concentration include river
mechanics , bridge-pier and culvert scour, erosion, and
sedimentation; diffusion and turbulence in closed- and
open-channel flow; cavitation, noise, and vibration; trans-
port of solids through pipelines, and viscous drag reduc-
tion; design and performance of hydraulic structures and of
water-conveyance systems; energy development and conser-
vation; physical modeling and mathematical modeling of
complex one- and two-dimensional systems; flow measure-
ment; and river-system remote sensing.
Information Transfer
The program is significantly involved in both standard
and innovative forms of information transfer. It specializes
in the development of specific information for presentation
as regular course work, in special short courses (page 51),
in seminars, and on videotape. The Section serves the spe-
cialized training needs of federal agencies, industry, state
agencies, and foreign agencies or governments. Special
courses have been offered in river mechanics, geomorphol-
ogy, transportation in river environment , remote sensing
techniques , nonuniform un steady water and sediment flow ,
31
32 Hydraulics, Fluid Mechanics , and Hydrology at CSU
river training, erosion and sedimentation, hydromachinery,
turbulence, diffusion , dispersion, and related processes .
The work may involve training with or without credit.
River Mechanics
A major area of concentration in hydraulic research at
Colorado State University is the behavior of alluvial chan-
nels. Much of this work is done in association with the
Agricultural Research Service , the Corps of Engineers, the
Bureau of Sports Fisheries, the U.S. Forest Service, the
Environmental Protection Agency , engineering consulting
firms, and foreign governments . The number and com-
plexity of the variables affecting flow in such channels
require highly sophisticated techniques if useful relation-
ships are to be developed. The work is supported by
investigations of basic flow phenomena.
These basic investigations include studies of flow
conditions in the laboratory and in the field that are de -
signed to develop sound principles for evaluating resistance
to flow , for computing sediment transport, for analyzing
channel stability, and for designing both rigid and alluvial
channels. Related studies investigating such phenomena as
turbulent shear flow will enable engineers to better under-
stand the processes of energy dissipation and dispersion in
open channels.
Specific projects are concerned with the effect of
surface forces on the stability of alluvial channels and the
analysis of ripples, dunes, antidunes, bar formations, and
other aspects of the movement of sediment particles in
alluvial channels. A study of the effects of different
variables on alluvial-channel flow is in progress; as a
consequence, it will be possible to make better use of the
results of small-scale flume and laboratory work. There is
currently research in progress on meandering and braiding
in alluvial channels, the hydraulics of steep channels,
secondary currents, and bridge-pier and general scour .
Colorado State University engineers are conducting
studies aimed at the development of a method for the design
of stable alluvial channels carrying a certain flow and
sediment load. Hydraulic engineers are working with geo-
morphologists and biologists toward a realistic solution of
this problem .
Current Research 33
Sediment transport rates under various simulated
vegetative and hydraulic conditions are being investigated
both theoretically and experimentally in a laboratory flume
by the stochastic approach. The distributions of the step
length s and rest periods of single sediment particles are
obtained with the aid of radioactive tracer techniques.
Studies of the interaction between wind and water in
open- channel flow are expected to yield results that will
make possible the modification of open-channel design
parameters to include the effects of wind . Wind-generated
waves in shallow water are also being studied .
Delta-formation studies involve the effect of
groundwater flow through porous stream banks and the
phenomena of delta development above flood-water and
debris-storage structures .
Research on the development of low- cost methods for
sealing leaky ponds and irrigation canals has evaluated a
series of Colorado clays as sealants and is now directed
toward studying various chemical sealants.
Hydromechanics
Research in the area of cavitation has been directed
toward providing the hydraulic engineer with information on
the cavitation performance of valves and other control
devices. Design limits of incipient, critical, incipient-
damage, and choking cavitation have been defined and
experimentally determined, and scale-effect adjustments
associated with size and operating pressure have been
proposed. Fundamental studies are under way to uncover
the mechanics of cavitation damage and the cause of scale
effects.
The unique head and discharge capacities of the
Hydromachinery Laboratory have enabled a considerable
amount of testing of full-scale hydraulic systems to . be
conducted. The torque, cavitation , transient vibration ,
and steady-state performance of large valves have been
studied. Flow-distribution, resistance , and flow-induced
vibration studies have been conducted on large piping
systems for nuclear power plants .
Hydraulic transients caused by filling and operating
pipelines and by closing check valves have been and are
being investigated. Guidelines for allowable filling
34 Hydraulics , Fluid Mechanics , and Hydrology at CSU
velocities , selection and location of air relief valves , and
identification of factors affecting transien t pressure rise
caused by pipe filling have been proposed.
Drag reduction caused by the addition of polyethylene
oxide to water flowing through pipes has produced de-
creases in wall shear stress in excess of 80 percent. The
influence of the additive on the boundary-layer growth ,
velocity profiles, and turbulence is being studied to un-
cover the reason for the profound influence of the additive.
Turbulence and Diffusion
Both theoretical and experimental studies of turbulence
and diffusion are being conducted under the hydraulics
program. These studies are being carried out in pipes and
open channels in both the laboratory and the field. The
theoretical studies are devoted to the development and
study of · mathematical models of turbulence-shear flows;
diffusion and dispersion processes ; turbulent mixing; and
the transport of mass , momentum , and heat . The experi-
mental program is developing methods and instruments for
the measurement of the fluctuating time and space variables
that constitute the flow field . It is also experimentally
examining the theoretical postulates to determine their
validity . The research is leading to better practical
methods of solving such engineering problems as energy
loss in fluid flow , transport of sediment , time of travel and
dilution of pollutants in rivers , and mixing in chemical
processes .
Physical and Mathematical Modeling
Colorado State University engineers have tested models
of high-head radial and roller-type gates, considering
special problems in seal design, hydraulic loading, aeration ,
and cavitation prevention . Other models of spillways,
outlet works, pens tocks, pipe networks , and diversion
works have been investigated . The research has also
included the study of flow-measuring structures and river
interaction with hydraulic structures. The interaction
study has entailed both physical and mathematical modeling.
Many studies involve the detailed mathematical modeling
of watersheds , sediments of rivers, hydraulic structures,
and river systems. Mathematical modeling involving the
routing of both water and sediment including sediment by

Current Research 35
size enables the engineer to study channel response, the
effect of hydraulic structures, flood routing, and in partic-
ular the response of watersheds and river systems to de-
velopment . Extensive modeling work is being done that
relates to the response of the Rio Grande and the
Mississippi Rivers to flood control, navigation, and specific
environmental considerations.
Moreover , mathematical-modeling activity includes the
routing of pesticides , herbicides , organic matter, and heat.
The present goal is to extend the modeling applications to
include identification of feasible development alternatives;
continued investigation of process and stochastic models;
and the production of simplified models for field application
where simplification is justified.
Unsteady Flow in Open Channels
Analyses of unsteady flow are concerned with
developing theoretical equations that relate to the actual
phenomena and the corresponding numerical analysis of the
partial differential equations. Attention is being given to
the analysis of errors and error propagation as a result of
the computational procedures. Areas of interest include
surges produced by flood waves in both natural channels
and at hydroelectric power generating stations where a
sudden change in power requirement may produce a cor-
responding surge in the fore bay or in the tailrace. In the
arid regions of the west, a knowledge of flash floods, which
occur in natural channels as a result of high-intensity
precipitation, is important in predicting the effects of
changing discharge in dry-bed channels. Continuing work
includes both theoretical and experimental observations of
rapidly varied unsteady flow. Results of research in this
area of study are being incorporated into other research
activites, such as mathematical modeling of various hydro-
logic and hydraulic problems . A major effort currently
involves the development of two-dimensional mathematical
models of special river problems .
Fluvial Geometronics
New and effective techniques for collecting spatial and
spectral information about river systems have been devel-
oped over the past few years in the Civil Engineering
Department at Colorado State University . The new proce-
dures, which involve analytical photogrammetry and remote
36 Hydraulics, Fluid Mechanics, and Hydrology at CSU
sensing , provide data at a rapid rate over extensive
reaches of river systems. Interpretation involves state-of-
the-art, manual, analog, and analytical procedures.
Graduate-study programs may be tailored to meet the indi-
vidual student's requirements , varying from supplemental to
total utilization of these new techniques for specific problem
areas .
Particular emphasis has been put upon the utilization
of both color infrared photography and thermal infrared
imagery for many aspects of river studies, including flow
patterns , vegetation mapping , environmental-impact assess-
ment , snow surveys, and sediment-transport processes .
Irrigation Engineering
The lack of food production and the need for better
nutrition in the developing countries is reaching disastrous
proportions, creating world problems. Yet improved water
management in conjun ction with soil management and im-
proved seeds can significantly increase food production,
even without additional fertilizer .
Irrigation engineering is involved with all aspects of
the hydrologic cycle as it relates to food production - the
watershed , water delivery and removal systems , and related
institutional development and on-fa rm water management.
Research is both basic and adaptive and involves legal and
administrative rules for water delivery and removal ; hy-
draulic structures for delivery, measurement , and control of
water and sediment; water-storage systems; conjunctive use
of surface and groundwater ; water quality; soil, water , and
crop interaction ; soil-erosion magnitude and control; man-
agement of water delivery systems ; on-farm water man-
agement ; and the planning and design of irrigation systems.
The irrigation engineering program is interdisciplinary
and involves departments in the Colleges of Agriculture,
Humanities and Social Sciences , and Natural Sciences, in
addition to the Agricultural Engineering and Civil Engineer-
ing Departments . The program also cooperates extensively
with similar programs at th e University of Arizona, Tucson ;
University of California, Davis ; University of California,
• Riverside; University of Idaho , Moscow ; New Mexico State
University, Las Cruces ; Oregon State University , Corvallis ;
Texas Tech University , Lubbock; Utah State University,
Logan and Washington State University, Pullman. These
Current Research 37
universities, along with Colorado State, have formed a
"Consortium for International Development" (CID) to apply
and coordinate their expertise in the fields of water manage-
ment to world production of food and fiber. A dynamic
intra- and inter-member university program has developed
that provides expertise in irrigation engineering to AID ,
the World Bank , private consulting firms , and foreign
governments.

The Fluid Mechanics and Wind Engineering Program
treats motions of gases and liquids as a scientific discipline
that is structured to support and stimulate many applica-
tions in engineering , architecture , agriculture , meteorology ,
oceanography, and biology. Through emphasis on applica-
tion of fluid mechanics to investigation of atmospheric
motion, the Program has pioneered in development of labora-
tory facilities to study low-level wind and its effects on
heat, mass , and momentum transfer . Theoretical and ap-
plied research, professional activities, and formal lecture
courses are integrated to form a well-balanced graduate
program. Graduates of the Program serve with engineering
faculties in universities throughout the world and are
employed by consulting firms, industries, and govern-
mental agencies .
Experimental research, a strongly emphasized element
of the Program, is centered in the Fluid Dynamics and
Diffusion Laboratory (FDDL) . Special boundary-layer wind
tunnels for simulation of atmospheric motion provide a
unique capability for basic research and investigation of
wind engineering and environmental problems of state ,
national, and international concern . Modern instrumenta-
tion, data-processing systems , and a variety of flow facili-
ties support basic and applied investigations on boundary
-- layers, turbulence , and turbulent diffusion. Because the
laboratory provides unusual opportunities for research,
many cooperative investigations with visiting scientists,
38 Hydraulics, Fluid Mechanics, and Hydrology at CSU
research teams from other universities, and industrial
research groups have evolved .
Research developed during the last three decades is
sponsored primarily by the National Science Foundation, the
Office of Naval Research, the National Aeronautics and
Space Administration, the Energy Research and Development
Administration, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the
Environmental Protection Agency, the Department of
Energy, the Air Force, the Army, and the Navy. The
Program is complemented by a wide variety of laboratory
investigations of wind forces on stru ctures, atmospheric
diffusion , and other wind-engineering problems associated
with maintenance of air quality, development of new energy-
production systems, and the design and planning of major
engineering projects . These investigations, sponsored by
leading consulting and industrial firms throughout the
country, utilize many of the research results obtained by
the program staff and students and h elp identify areas that
will be productive for new research . In addition to provid-
ing support for program faculty, laboratory technicians, 30
graduate research assistants, and 28 under-graduate labora-
tory assistants, contract funds permit operation , mainte-
nance, and development of the FDDL without cost to the
State of Colorado .
Turbulent-Boundary-Layer and Turbulence Studies
Boundary-layer investigations have been and continue
to be the primary research area of the Program. Three
decades ago the research began on two-dim ensional boun-
dary layers. The effects of surface roughn ess and thermal
stratification on mean flow properties and turb ulen ce were
investigated for uniform surfaces corresponding to a wide
range of natural surface conditions. Current research
focuses on the definition of flow characteristics over non-
uniform surfaces for which surface roughn ess and/or temp-
erature vary in either two-dimensional or circular areal
patterns. These surface conditions correspond closely to
natural conditions found on Earth's surface. Through
a n aly sis and comparison of boundary-layer data measured in
the FDDL meteorological wind tunnel with micrometerorolog-
ical data measured in the atmospheric boundary layer , simi-
larity for the boundary -layer characteristics was confirmed
in 1963 . Thus, a rational basis for use of boundary-layer
wind tunnels to study natural wind characteristics and
their effects on h eat, mass, and momentum transfer was
Current Res earch 39
established . Accordingly, information on turbulence
distributions , lateral and vertical mean-flow development ,
and longitudinal vorticity obtained in the meteorological and
environmental wind tunnels provides direct information on
atmospheric motion over cities, agricultural areas, airport
runways, lakes, and many other local surface irregularities .
This knowledge is useful in determining the circulation of
air pollutants in urban areas, carbon -dioxide transport to
plants, dispersal of insecticides by aircraft, and evapora-
tion of water from land and water surfaces as well as fric-
tional drag on various types of surfaces.
Experimental evalu ations of the properties of
compres sible turbulent boundary layers for both subsonic
and supersonic flow have been made using facilities of the
NASA Ames Research Center, since the FDDL specializes in
low-speed wind-tunnel facilities . Evaluation of turbulent
s h ear stress for a wide range of flow conditions has been
made. This is aiding in development of a computer code
that will be employed directly in design of new aircraft .
Fundamental boundary-layer phenomenon currently
being studied both theoretically and experimentally include
the following topics:
1. vorticity amplification in boundary layers
near stagnation regions,
2. thermally induced flow reversal in flat-plate
boundary layers ,
3. boundary- layer interaction with a
tornado-like vortex that is attached normal
to the flow boundary, and
4. perturbations in boundary-layer
characteristics resulting from flow over
hill-like surface obstacles.
Systems for generation of large-scale turbulence in
wind-tunnel test sections have been studied in the FDDL .
The need for such a system, in addition to determining the
basic properties of large-scale turbulence, is to enable aero -
dynamic stability of s u spension-bridge decks to be investi-
gated in flows that adeq uately simulate atmospheric turbu-
lence. A promising system consisting of sets of airfoils with
random pitch fluctuations activated by hydraulically driven
elec tro-m echanical servo -systems has been constructed.

Turbulent Diffusion Studies
Basic research on turbulent diffu sion and transport
has been and continu es to be a fundamental effort of the
Fluid Dy namics and Wind Engineering Program. Initially
studies were confined to diffusion from steady point or line
sources of passive material into turb ulent boundary layers
with and without thermal stratification establis h ed over a
p lan e surface of uniform r ou g hn ess an d temperature. Cur-
rent studies emp h asize investigation of turbulent transport
over nonuniform surfaces corresponding, in local r egion s,
to individual buildings, hills, and city canyons. These
studie s include basic research on dispersion of dense gases
s uch as may res ult from a liquid natural gas spill and dis-
persion in drainage flows generated b y surface cooling of
complex terrain models. The investigations are being ex-
tended to include unsteady flow condition s, dispersion of
aerosols as well as gases, and measurem ent of concentration
fluctuation s in addition to mean concentrations. Basic in-
fo rmation on disp ersion rates is being used in formulating
environmental-impact evaluations eith er directly or through
incorporation as input for num erical models.
Wake ·studies
Interaction of a turbulent circular jet with a turbulent
boundary layer formed on a flat plate norm al to the jet axis
has been studied in detail. Both the mean-flow and turbu-
lence characteristics within the jet-wake region are under
study .
Wakes downwind from isolated surface obstacles
immersed in a boundary -layer flow contain a pair of vortices
trailing behind the obs tacle for a wide range of wind direc-
tions . The wake characteristics - mean flow, turbulence,
and vorticity - are being studied for a hemispherical ob-
stacle and for box-like obstacles. Since similar wakes are
found in the atmosphe re downwind from buildings, the
research is being done to determine effects that buildings
near airports might have upon flight safety during takeoff
and landing , to determine how upwind structures affec t
wind pressures o_n buildings in their wake , and to evaluate
dispersion characteristics for air pollutants emitted in a
building wake. '
The vortex-shedding properties of circular cylinders,
although established for uniform flow, are not known for
Current Reserach 41
flow in which the mean speed varies along the length of the
cylinder. A basic study in which the flow speed varies at
a constant rate has been initiated in support of a program
to investigate 11 strumming 11 of long underwater cables.
Studies of Wind Effects on Buildings and Structures
A program of systematic experimental and analytical
studies to develop a basic understanding of interactions
between wind and bluff bodies such as buildings, towers,
and bridges has been active for the last decade. Local flow
phenomena (separation, reattachment, vortex formation, and
shedding), local wind pressures and heat-transfer rates on
building surfaces, and integral wind effects (mean forces
and moments; dynamic excitation by buffeting, vortex
shedding, and galloping) are being investigated for a
variety of surrounding urban environments and topography .
The fundings are being related to building design and
constru ction practices, with the long-range objective of
improving building codes in an effort to reduce the nearly
three -billion - dollar annual wind damage to buildings now
being experienced in the United States. This program
supported by the National Science Foundation is comple-
mented by wind- engineering investigations for the design of
many n ew structures that are conducted for architectural
and structural engineering firms .
As a result of these pioneering studies on wind-
effects, the Program was selected to serve as headquarters
for the Wind Engineering Research Council, Inc ., and to
serve as host for the Fifth International Conference on Wind
Engineering in 1979 .
Air-Pollution Control Stu dies
The capability to physically model atmospheric
transport of air pollutants for a wide range of meteorolog-
ical conditions grew out of Program research on turbulent
diffusion and development of the meteorological wind tunnel.
Determination of good-engineering-practice stack heights for
power plants and smelters, safety evaluation in the event of
ruptured liquid-natural-gas storage tanks, pollution levels
during loading and unloading of toxic chemicals, potential
pollutant concentrations in and near parking garages,
arrangement of buildings and air exhaust-in take vents to
m11um1ze recirculation of pollutants into buildings, and
dispersion-control measures to minimize transport of odors

from sewage-treatment-plant sludge ponds are among the
services provided utilities , governmental agencies, and
urban developers .
The primary endeavors of the Fluid Mechanics and
Wind Engineering Program in this area of study have two
goals:
1. To develop basic knowledge about winds and
dispersion in complex boundary conditions
that defy solution by numerical and mathe-
matical analysis.
2. To utilize the capabilities for physical
modeling in the FDDL to serve the needs of
society in achieving environmental control for
existing and proposed urban and industrial
developments .
The singular success of these efforts continues to
provide quantitive data to engineers, architects, urban
planners, and owners that permit decisions on environmental
questions to be made with confidence . Program staff serve
as advisors to governm ":!ntal regulatory agencies and utility
advisory groups in the development of air-pollution regula-
tions as a result of these pioneering efforts .

The broad objectives of this program are to obtain a
more complete understanding of the physical and statistical
characteristics of the hydrologic system and to develop
better methods of applying this understanding to the more
effective management of our water resources .
Application of Statistical and Stochastic Methods
This work deals with the analysis of stochastic
processes in hydrology and water resources. It concerns
especially the variations of hydrologic variables in time and
space and their effect on the output variables of water-
resource systems . These processes are analyzed by the
Current Research 43
most up-to-date methods of probability theory, mathematical
statistics, and stochastic ·th eory. Special emphasis is
placed upon new methods of solving water-regulation prob-
lems in the planning, design, and operation of storage-
reservoir capacities. The study of the stochastic aspects of
floods in developing methods for selecting flood-control
measures , and the use of stochastic techniques for estimat-
ing drought possibilities and developing methods for
drought-control measures , are also important aspects of this
area of study . Because of the complexities of hydrologic
systems , it is often desirable to consider the functions of
the watershed to be a stochastic process and then to deal
with the hydrologic behavior in statistical terms.
General Hydrology
The overall objective of this research is to stud y water
and air movement in soils and to develop a mathematical
model of infiltration and drainage able to respond to any
spatial and temporal pattern of rainfall, including drought .
In this form the model can be readily integrated into a
general model simulating the hydrologic response of a
watershed.
The problem of predicting the onset of the flood
hydrograph after the beginning of storm rainfall is asso -
ciated with many problems in operational hydrology. Initial-
ly, losses from the storm rainfall occur before the flood
runoff begins . These losses are largely related to the
losses to soil-moisture storage that have taken place since
the last time the watershed was fully saturated. Such
losses are largely evapotranspirational. Using g iven cli-
matic measurements in the watershed , better methods for
predicting the evapotranspiration losses are being
developed .
Under a cooperative agreement, a U.S.-Yugoslavia
research project on the hydrology and water resources of
karsified areas involves various methods of determining the
water budget of large underground or surface karst areas.
The response of karst aquifers to inputs in the form of the
outflow of karst springs has been given particular atten-
tion, as have several particular engineering and econ omic
problems of karst areas. A method of solving the problem of
conjunctive use of surface storage and interconnected
undergroun d storage has been developed.

Droughts
The project to study droughts has been organized in
three fundamental parts. The first is an analysis of the
probability of occurrence of droughts covering different
areas for prolonged times. The second part is an analysis
of the predictability of large droughts by examining variou s
interrelationships and attempting to provide a physical
explanation of the droughts. And the third part is a study
of the engineering and socio- economic aspects of droughts
with particular emphasis on drought-control measures . It is
hoped that this proj ect will lead to procedures which can be
used to help alleviate the hardship and suffering which are
caused by prolonged droughts .
Snow and Ice in the Hy drologic System
The objective of this research is to develop an optimal
strategy of op erations for an ove rall water-resource d evel-
opment , taking into account the inte rrelations of the hydrol-
ogy , th e characte ristics of powe r-produ c tion and distribu-
tion units, the effect of e n e rgy prices and demand, and the
acceptability of various risk factors.
Additional projects have as th eir objective the
developm ent of proced ures to describe th e evolution of th e
water content of the soil under n atural h yd r ologic boundary
conditions. This is a problem of identif ying the relevant
physical p h en omen a producing th e ne cessa r y mathematical
model fo r the computer solution of the physical problem.
The compatibility of the final product with existing models
and actual field conditio ns will then be tested.
Since s now an d ice a r e sig·nificant features of the
h ydrologic cycle, research work in snow hydrology is
expec ted to yield a mor e complete unde rstanding of the
migration of th e water through th e s now phase of the
h ydrologic cycle.
Wate r Quality Hydrology
The primary objec tiv e of this r esea rch is to develop a
water-quality model to predict the ch aracteristics of runoff
from a small waters h ed. This will require the determination
of the r elation ships between the runoff h ydr ograph and a
water-quality hydrograp h , and an evalu ation of the s ensiti-
v ity of the pertinent model parameters to erro r or un ce r-
tainty in the data.
Current Research 45
Using the rainfall-runoff facility at the Engineering
Research Center, it is proposed to model the water-quality
concentration resulting from a small watershed subjected to
contr olled rainfall . Both surface runoff and the combination
of s urface and subsurface runoff will be investigated. The
runoff hydrograp h and the water-quality hydrograph from
the small watershed will be studied to determine fundamental
interrelationships so that the feasibility of estimating runoff
water-quality conc entrations by utilizin g the ru noff hydro-
grap h can be investigated.
Sanitary Engineering
The project objective is to investigate the potential for
water r e us e and to compare the costs and side effects of
water reus e to the development of n ew water in meetin g the
demands at least cost.
The meth odology is a planning matrix. In this matrix
all categories of inputs are displayed as rows. These
inputs include such things as base stream flow, ground-
water, stream reach, stored water, industrial efflu ents, a
treatment-plant efflu ent , agricultural return flows, and
others. The destinations of these inputs are either a
water- treatment plant, or another stream reach. Thus, the
matrix can display any relationship desired between each
possible source , displayed as a row on the matrix , and each
possible destination , displayed as a column. Optimization
can be in terms of maximizin g net benefits or min imizing
costs within the con straints of the system.
Flood Hydrology
Small watersheds are of great economic importance
because there are so ma ny of them and because th e aggre-
gate economic investment in them is great. In spite of
this, th e r e is a paucity of actual records of runoff from
small watersheds. Research work is now concentrated upon
developing new scientific methods for solving problems in
predicting floods from small watersheds.
This research has res ulted in the collection of flood
and rainfall data from small experimental waters h e ds distri-
buted over the United States. These data are being assem -
bled on magn etic tape. The data can then be used to test
vario u s theoretical meth ods of predicting the flood r espons e
for small watersheds . In additio n , con trolled and
46 Hydraulics, Fluid Mechanics, and Hydrology at CSU
reproducible expe rim ents using the one-half-acre outdoor
rainfall-runoff facility are b eing carried ou t to provide ad-
ditional input and testing of the models . The analysis is
b ein g developed to in clude a num erical solution to the over-
la nd-flow eq uation s, the watershed as a mean s of storage,
and the effects of land u se on the various elements in the
h ydrologic system .
Recent research h as shown that the progr essive
urbanization of a region r es ult s in large changes in its
floo d potential. There is a n eed for meas ureme nts in an
urban e nvironm ent , and several me trop olitan areas have
networks of s mall waters hed s t h at a r e in strum ented with
stream - gaging stations and recording rain gages. Data
from t h ese waters h eds are r ecorded on magn etic tap e in th e
CSU flood-data file. Also recorded a r e pertinent physical
features of the waters hed . With urbanization , some of
th ese physical featu res are rapidly chan ging , and the
research which is being carried out will provide means for
predicting the alteration t o be anticip ated in th e flood
h yd r ograp h as these waters h eds become urbanized.
Obviously, an y improvement which can be made in th e
prediction of floods and th e development of cos t- effe ctive
flood- co ntrol meas ures would be of g r eat benefit to society.

Groundwater research projects encompass both basic
and applied research directly related to the fields of h y -
draulics, h ydr ology, geology, an d geotechnical enginee rin g.
Historically, most wo rk at Colo r ado State University
has been on applied problems requiring field investigations
in Colorado with the cooperation of both state and local
agen cies. The Colorado Division of Water Resources is
currently u tilizin g several computer programs developed
specifically to h elp an a lyze groundwate r - man agement prob-
lems. Conjunctive-u se studies for the combined managem ent
of both ground and s urfac e water have direct applicability
to the management of many of t h e stream- aq uife r systems
Current Research 47
within Colorado and throughout the world. The need to
conserve available water resources has placed additional
emphasis on the use of artificial recharge and the storing of
excess flows for later groundwater withdrawal.
A large and well-equipped laboratory is available to
make detailed studies of aquifer samples and to evaluate the
phenomena that control flow through porous media. In
addition, the computer facilities at the University are exten-
sively used in developing computer models and optimization
techniques to evaluate operational policies for the beneficial
use of both ground and surface waters. Computer and
physical models for predicting changes in groundwater
quality have been developed and additional work is under
way.
Artificial Recharge
Currently storm runoff and some winter stream flows
pass into adjoining states and are not available for use in
Colorado . Demonstration projects have been conducted
indicating that benefits could be obtained from the artificial
recharge of groundwater aquifers with excess surface flows .
Projects have been conducted at Olds Reservoir in Prospect
Valley, on the Arikaree River near Cope, on properties of
the South Platte Ditch Company near Sterling, and at
Haxtun, Colorado. These demonstrations have shown the
feasibility of spreading water or using available leaky canals
and reservoirs to recharge excess surface water to the
underlying aquifer.
Proper management of a groundwater aquifer
necessitates the determination of the areal and time distri-
bution of the natural recharge . The amount of water
reaching the water table is a function of soil and aquifer
properties , rainfall intensities, topography, and depth to
the water table. Current research seeks to develop a model
that will consider these variables in estimating the natural
recharge and allow development of better management
policies for administration of withdrawals from aquifers such
as the Ogallala formation in eastern Colorado.
Groundwater Management
Digital computer models have been developed and are
currently being used by water administrators in evaluating
complex groundwater systems. These models assist water
48 Hydraulics, Fluid Mechanics, and Hydrology at CSU
administrators in evaluating the effect of various pumping
patterns , natural recharge, artificial recharge, and water
exchange with overlying streams or reservoirs.
Development of techniques that can be used to design
optimal operational policies is under way. Application of
these techniques to existing water-distribution systems is
also under way and should demonstrate to water adminis-
trators their usefulness in developing optimal operational
policies.
Groundwater Quality Studies
Current concern for water quality and , specifically,
the need to protect our groundwater from pollution is
responsible for the development of several projects evaluat-
ing the physical interaction between soil and water systems
and the possible contamination of groundwater by
fertilizers. Pollution may also occur by percolation of water
through sanitary land fills and through fills in strip-mine
operations ; studies are under way to determine the useful-
ness of existing groundwater models in evaluating the
ability of various reclamation procedures to intercept the
pollutants and extract them for processing, thus minimizing
the pollution. Development of digital-computer models for
the treatment of hydrodynamic dispersion in porous media is
being continued . Laboratory studies of the physical phe-
nomena that control groundwater pollution are being
conducted.
A groundwater quantity-quality simulation model has
been combined with an optimizing model for managing
groundwater salinity in irrigated stream-aquifer systems.
The management model has been applied to the San Luis
Rey River Basin in San Diego County, California, enabling
forecasts to be made of the impact of various innovative
salinity-management strategies.
A physical model to study the precipitation of humic
acid at the interface between a humic-acid solution and an
aluminum-potassium-sulfate solution was developed to gain
an insight into the deposition of Colorado-Plateau-type
uranium deposits. A numerical model was also developed to
predict the potential location of these deposits. Currently,
the model is being modified to simulate actual field
conditions .
Current Research 49
Pumping Plant Systems
Many of the irrigation and municipal wells that pump
water from underlying aq uifers operate at very low efficien-
cies. Recent studies h ave discovered the causes of the low
efficiencies, and extensive educational programs have been
developed with the Cooperative Extension Service to encour-
age individual p ump owners to improve their respective
plant efficiencies to save both money and e n ergy. Part of
this study has included analysis of pumping-plant costs,
operation and maintenance procedures , the effects of declin-
in g water levels, and the economies associated with rising
fuel and power costs. The results of this research have
been directly applied and presented at public meetings;
many individual contacts have been made with pump owners
to en coura ge them to improve their pumping plants.
WATER RESROUCES PLANNING AND MANAGEMENT
Dr . Warren A . Hall : Professor in Charge
Senior Staff: Maurice L. Albertson (Emeritu s J,
Victor A. Koelzer, J. W. Labadie
Recent years have seen a great increase in the
systems approach to water resources. This h as been due,
to a great extent, to the development of new mathematical
techniques and tools, including the computer, simulation
techniqu es, and mathematical programming. Although the
u se of these tools is still in its infancy, it is already evi-
dent that great improvements can be made in planning ,
design , construction , operation , and management of water-
resource systems.
Developments in s uch systems depend in an
indispensable way on a sound knowledge of the b asic
aspects of water-resources developm ent , such as hydrology,
hydraulics , fluid mechanic s, atmospheric science,
groundwater, and flow in open ch annels; the socio - economic
aspects are important as well. The purpose of the program
in water-resource systems is to integrate the different areas
of specialization to optimize the use of water resources
through the new techniques and tools now available.
Among the various elements that are important in
water - resource systems are hydropower, irrigation, water
50 Hydraulics, Fluid Mechanics , and Hydrology at CSU
pollution, flood control , municipal and industrial water ,
navigation , coastal engineering , and recreation.
Res earch in water-resource systems involves
consideration of subsystems as well as overall systems. It
also involves the selection and analysis of decision vari-
ables, constraints , state variables, objective functions,
optimal-policy analysis , cost-benefit analysis , water convey-
ance and distribution systems , water-supply reservoir
systems , and the decomposition and recomposition of large-
scale , complex, multi-purpose water-resource systems.
The overall objective of the research is to design rules
for the conjunctive development , management , use , and
protection of surface and groundwater resources that both
satisfy the law and maximize the beneficial use of the
waters. To achieve this overall objective , a major objective
is a realistic analysis of the simultaneous behavior of river
flow and groundwater movement. An important specification
for this analysis is that it be usable in any economic
regional analysis immediately and without modification . The
maximization of the human regional economic and social
objective will determine a worthy set of rules for manage-
ment within present law . Another objective is to find out
whether limited changes in the law or other constraints
might not result in great benefits.
The research employs a broad array of techniques in
the analysis of the physical system, among which are re-
moval of singularities , Green's functions, finite-difference
method, finite-element method, and Galerkin's method, as
well as various processes of statistical analysis. Tech-
niques employed in the optimization study are stochastic
one-stage and multi-stage analysis and differential-algorithm
programming, involving both single- and multi-objective
programs .
