For the same discharge, the flow behaviour of a river depends mainly on the flume slope and on the flume roughness. Uniform discharge with constant depth is called normal discharge. For a different roughness respectively a different slope, normal discharge changes to non-uniform discharge.
The flume roughness is changed using the flume bottom HM 161.77. The experimental flume HM 161 can be inclined.

Flume bottom with pebble stones
Overview
For the same discharge, the flow behaviour of a river depends mainly on the flume slope and on the flume roughness. Uniform discharge with constant depth is called normal discharge. For a different roughness respectively a different slope, normal discharge changes to non-uniform discharge.
The flume roughness is changed using the flume bottom HM 161.77. The experimental flume HM 161 can be inclined.
