Experimental study of discharge Coefficient of Piano Key Side Weir in 45-Degree Sector of a curved channel [PDF]
A new type of Long-crested weirs is Piano Key weir that allows the reservoir to run at a higher level. The use of a Piano Key weir as side weir allows for more drainage, due to the geometric shape of the channel and the impact of centrifugal force on the

Apron and Cutoff Wall Scour Protection for Piano Key Weirs [PDF]
Piano key (PK) weirs are used in a variety of flow control structure applications, including spillway crests and open channel diversion structures. However, to the best of authors’ knowledge, structure-specific design guidance for scour mitigation is still needed.

Effects of Nose and Piano Keys Weir Parapet Wall on Floating Woody Debris [PDF]
A hydraulic structure is a device designed to retain, regulate, or control the flow of water. The most common type of hydraulic structures are weirs. Weirs are overflow structures that stretch across an open channel of water, and are meant to alter the ...

Efficiency Improvement of Piano Key Weirs Using Numerical Simulation [PDF]
Piano key weirs, as a type of non-linear spillway with specific geometry, have a higher discharge capacity and have thus attracted researchers' attention. The use of piano key weirs is proposed as an alternative solution to improve dam performance.

Effect of the shape and type of piano key weirs on the flow efficiency
This study evaluates the effect of the piano key weir’s (PKW) shape and type on the flow efficiency for different inlet and outlet keys width ratios (Wi/Wo). The study is performed experimentally and numerically using a CFD model.
