Free-Surface Aeration in a Steep Stepped Spillway
, 2016 Self-aeration has important civil and environmental applications in stepped chutes, ranging from cavitation protection to enhanced air-water mass transfer. Air bubble entrainment occurs when the turbulent stresses in the boundary layer exceed the combined effects of surface tension and buoyancy.

Numerical investigation of simultaneous effect of end sills and roughness on flow characteristics in V-shaped stepped spillways [PDF]
Journal of Hydraulic Structures, 2021 The special configuration of V- shape stepped spillways increases energy dissipation and aeration compared to the smooth spillways due to the creation of many vortices near the steps. In this research, the energy dissipation in different types of stepped

Study Effect of Fluctuations of Pressure Factors of Stepped Short-throat Shaft Spillways on Hydraulic Coefficient [PDF]
Journal of Hydraulic and Water Engineering, 2023 Stepped spillways discharge more flow through themselves than smooth spillways theoretically. Therefore, understanding the flow behavior of these spillways can lead to better and more efficient use. In addition, the use of vortex breaker.
