Urban pumping stations often adopt the design of lateral-intake multiple forebays to
accommodate multiple pump units in a limited space and to reduce interaction between the …

Environmental and civil engineering projects frequently employ the open channel side
intake structure. However, the commonest among the issues faced in most of the lateral …

In open channel networks, flow is usually approximated by the one-dimensional (1D) Saint-
Venant equations coupled with an empirical junction model. In this work, a comparison in …

Lateral intake is a hydraulic structure which is broadly used for purposes such as agricultural
consumption or urban water supply. To improve the efficiency of this structure, it is common …

Branching channel flow refers to any side water withdrawals from rivers or main channels.
Branching channels have wide application in many practical projects, such as irrigation and …

Accepted: 18 April 2018 Forebay sedimentation is a common problem in large pump
stations because the water is taken in from heavily silt-carrying rivers. Targeting the# 3 …

The present paper addresses the effect of placing an intake, as a diversion structure, in
different positions and with various angles in a 180° bend to investigate the scour depth …

Hydraulic characteristics of the flow and sediment transport conditions are among the most
important issues in design of the lateral intakes in order to minimize the flow loss. In this …

Water diversion to bifurcating canals has been attracting interest from water engineering
researchers for decades. It can be described by the size of the separation zone in the intake …

This paper deals with numerical study of flow field in a channel bend in presence of a lateral
intake using three-dimensional numerical model SSIIM2. The effects of bend on the structure …
