| Abstract | ||||
| Erosion, transport, and deposition processes in alluvial channel are considered one of the complex phenomena due to the limited knowledge in the theory of interaction between water and sediment flow, and in predicting the behaviour of alluvial water courses. In the last thirty years although experience in sediment transport in both practice and theory as well as the increasing capacity of digital computers and the numerical techniques have provided a substantial aid in this field, but the mechanics of sediment transportation is still considerably far from being satisfactory. Four conventional bed load formulae have been applied to some selected Egyptian irrigation canals. Located in the Delta region. Limitations of each formula have been discussed, and the most appropriate formula has been used for an estimation of the annual bed load for these canals. | ||||
