Developing and testing a novel pressure-controlled hydraulic profile for siphon-shaft spillways

MC Aydin, AE Ulu - Flow Measurement and Instrumentation, 2023 - Elsevier
The operating heads of the siphon-shaft spillways are limited by cavitational pressure due to
low siphonic pressure inside the spillway shaft. Therefore, these low pressures inside the …

Numerical modelling of flow in morning glory spillways using FLOW-3D

AR Razavi, H Ahmadi - Civil Engineering Journal, 2017 - civilejournal.org
Suspended load amount with flow is one of the factors which are disregarded in designing
morning glory spillways. It is due to the fact that physical modeling of sediment load with …

Quantifying the effects of channel change on the discharge diversion of Jingjiang Three Outlets after the operation of the Three Gorges Dam
