For curved surface, separate the pressure force into horizontal and vertical part. The

horizontal part becomes plane surface and the vertical force becomes weight.

If an object is submerged in several different fluids, must calculate the

buoyancy in each of them, then add together. When using buoyancy in

problems, FBD is often needed.

Example

If a flow rate of sm /2.0 3 is measured over a 9 to1 scale model of a weir, what flow rate

can be expected on the prototype?

Flow over a weir is an openchannel flow. Use Froude number for modeling.
