Hydraulic performance of a pre-aerated stilling basin: Experimental study. [PDF]
Spillway chutes are critical in dam flood control, particularly in high dams where high water heads and large discharge in narrow canyons amplify the demand for safe discharging. For large unit discharges in spillways, aeration protection is essential to
