Uncertainty analysis of discharge coefficient of circular crested weirs
The circular crested weir (CCW) has been introduced as weirs having a high discharge coefficient (Cd). The ratio of flow head to the radius of the crest (H/R) is the most important parameter affecting the Cd, that the $${\text{Cd}} \approx a\left( {H/R} \

Discharge coefficient for vertical sluice gate under submerged condition using contraction and energy loss coefficients [PDF]
A novel method is suggested for the determination of flow discharge in vertical sluice gates with considerably small bias. First, in order to derive an equation for the discharge coefficient, energy-momentum equations are implemented to define the ...
