The inception point of flow aeration on a rough stepped spillway [PDF]
Stepped spillways are used in hydraulic engineering projects such as small and large dams. The inception point of aeration on such hydraulic structures is essential in determining the zones of single and two-phase flow.

Effect Of Pooled and Flat Stepped Spillway on Energy Dissipation Using Computational Fluid Dynamics
The goal of this research was to determine the impact of a pooled and flat stepped spillway on energy losses. FLOW3D, which is a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) program, with mesh size of 0.015 mm was used for this purpose. First, the code was tested

Prediction of air concentration in stepped spillways using data-oriented methods [PDF]
The high flow velocity and the pressure reduction in the spillways cause damage to the spillways. In the present research, the application of Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) was investigated for predicting air ...

Stepped spillway with pre-aeration by a deflector: flow characteristics
Stepped spillways aim to dissipate part of the upstream energy during the flow passage by the chute. However, the use of these structures is limited to a restrict range of specific discharges due to the risk of cavitation damage.

Stepped spillway flows and air entrainment [PDF]
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 ...

Effect of Height and Geometry of Stepped Spillway on Inception Point Location
Air entrainment in a stepped spillway is very important to protect the spillway from cavitation damage. The inception point is the location where air starts entering the non-aerated flow zone. The inception point location depends on different parameters,

Stepped Spillway as an Energy Dissipater [PDF]
This paper describes an experimental investigation into the hydraulics of ogee-profile stepped spillways, examines their viability as an alternative to smooth-back spillways and investigates their efficiency in reducing the downstream energy and length of the hydraulic jump.
