Comparison of Discharge Coefficient Between Arced Piano Key Weir and Non-Arc Piano Key Weirs [PDF]
In this paper, discharge coefficient of arced piano key weir compared against two models of normal or fashionable piano key weirs with no arc in their plan. The arced piano key weirs are less investigated. Piano key weirs are pretty new sort of labyrinth

The effect of the energy head and the inlet and outlet key width on discharge coefficient of Piano key weir [PDF]
IntroductionPiano key weir is a form of nonlinear weir designed to improve the discharge capacity of spillway structures. Due to the increase in effective length, they can be used in dam spillways or water regulation structures.

Clear Water Scour around at a Piano Key Side Weir of the Type A at 120° Section of a 180° Curved Channel [PDF]
A side weir is a hydraulic control structure used in irrigation and drainage systems and combined sewer systems. The Piano Key Weir (PKW) is a new type of long crest weirs that have a relatively simple structure and high economic efficiency structures ...

Energy Dissipation of Type a Piano Key Weirs [PDF]
A Piano Key weir (PK weir) is a nonlinear, labyrinth-type weir well suited for rehabilitation projects due to a relatively small footprint and the ability to pass large discharges for lesser upstream-head values when compared with other weir types. A critical component of a hydraulic structure is the energy-dissipative properties.
