It is beyond the scope of this Wikipedia Page to explain the intricacies of operating HEC-RAS. For those interested in learning more, the HEC-RAS user’s manual is an excellent learning tool and the program is free to the public. It is also important to note, the example problem is a simplified situation, where minor energy losses due to expansion/contraction and the sluice gate are not taken into account. To adequately model this within the HEC-RAS modeling environment, a sluice gate constant (Cs¬) was determined and minor loss coefficients were set to zero.<br /><br />
