Hydraulic Performance of Wave-Type Flow at a Sill-Controlled Stilling Basin
Downstream of the sluice gate or weir, wave-type flows inevitably occur in stilling basins with no tailwater. This paper aims to investigate the hydraulic performance of wave-type flows at a sill-controlled stilling basin through experimental research ...

Numerical study of turbulent flow in USBR VI stilling basin
The USBR VI stilling basin is one of the oldest basins designed to dissipate the energy at the outlet of pipes. In this study, the effect of two parameters including the Froude number (Fr) of inlet flow to the basin and the ratio of basin width to ...
