New Equations for Energy Dissipation down a Stepped Spillway

open access: yesJournal of Engineering Research and Reports, 2022
Stepped spillways use their stepping nature to substantially dissipate energy in floodwater. Many researchers investigated the hydraulic and geometric relationships of the stepped spillway with a dam slope above 26.6o degrees that resulted in energy ...

SCOUR CHARACTERISTICS DOWNSTREAM CONVERGING SPILLWAYS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Egyptian International Journal of Engineering Sciences and Technology, 2016
Flow over spillways or underneath gates has a tremendous amount of potentialenergy, which is converted into kinetic energy downstream control structures.

Experimental Study of Energy Loss in a Stepped Spillway Equipped with Inclined Steps in the Nappe and Skimming Flow Regimes

open access: yesInternational Journal of Science and Engineering Applications, 2022
Scrutinizing the considerable flow energy in a spillway plays a significant role in maintaining downstream dam safety, and due to this fact, the dimension of the stilling basin will be enormously reduced, and from an economical point-of-view ...

Influences of pre-aerator angle variations on length of aerated cavity and pressure of stepped spillway

open access: yesShuili Shuiyun Gongcheng Xuebao, 2017
Using a pre-aerator to connect WES curved surface with the stepped spillway in an integrative energy dissipater combination which includes flaring gate pier, stepped spillway and stilling basin can effectively increase the stepped surface aeration and ...

Investigations of velocity and pressure fluctuations over stepped spillway with new step configuration

open access: yesWater supply : the review journal of the International Water Supply Association, 2022
The effect of the end sill shape of steps for two-phase flow over the stepped spillways was investigated in this paper. A quantitative assessment approach has been applied. Experimental and numerical tests were used for stepped spillways with different

Using a Ball that Bounces Down a Flight of Stairs to Determine Energy Dissipation in Stepped Spillway with a Fully Developed Hydraulic Jump

open access: yesJournal of Engineering Research and Reports, 2022
In this paper, the authors reviewed the characteristics of a ball that descended one step each bounce of a flight of stairs and drew an analogy with a stepped spillway with a fully developed hydraulic jump. They used this concept with equations of motion,

Longitudinal distribution of extreme pressures in a hydraulic jump downstream of a stepped spillway

open access: yesRBRH, 2017
The overflow system of a dam safely controls the water level of a reservoir. The design of these structures should predict the damage caused by the action of the turbulent flow to which they are subject to.

Energy dissipation performance of the trapezoidal stepped spillway

open access: yesJournal of Engineering Research, 2021
Stepped spillways are a more effective type of spillway in energy dissipation than conventional chute channels. Therefore, the dimensions of the energy breaker at the downstream of the stepped spillways are lower.

Stepped spillway flows and air entrainment [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Civil Engineering, 1993
Stepped spillways have become a popular method for handling flood releases. The steps significantly increase the rate of energy dissipation taking place on the spillway face and reduce the size of the required downstream energy dissipation basin. The compatibility of stepped spillways with roller compacted concrete and gabion construction techniques ...

Experimental and numerical simulation of flow over stepped spillways

open access: yesApplied Water Science, 2018
Stepped spillways are used in the construction of dams, river engineering and soil conservation projects. Energy dissipation in this structure due to the presence of several steps is high, so the construction costs for stilling basin are reduced.
