Where the Froude number of the incoming flow is low, the hydraulic jump produces objectionable waves downstream. This study generalizes the design of two stilling basins and two types of wave suppressors for stabilizing the water surface. Sample problems are used to illustrate the design procedures recommended.

Experiences with Stilling Basins
1992As compared to the number of laboratory studies, where stilling basins were tested and their performance improved by various appurtenances, the information on the actual behaviour of prototypes is scarce. A number of general comments on “stilling basin experiences” are outlined, as was done in a classical paper by Berryhill.

Journal of the Hydraulics Division, 1957
Continuing the development in Paper 1402, this paper describes tests to generalize the design of a shorter stilling basin containing chute blocks, end sill, and one row of baffle piers. General design rules and sample problems are included. Critical basin dimensions, water surface profiles, and tail water ranges are presented in dimensionless forms.

Performance of a single-basin solar still
Renewable Energy, 1993Abstract A single-basin solar still having a base area of 1.5 m2 (1.5 m × 1.0 m) was designed and fabricated from galvanized steel sheet with an inclined glass cover. The unit was insulated with Staropor. Hourly and daily measurements of the still productivity, temperature of water, glass cover, and ambient air were recorded during both summer and ...

Feasibility Assessment of Basin Solar Stills
International Journal of Green Energy, 2014The present study assesses the feasibility of exploiting single- and double-basin solar stills in our daily lives. An investigation is carried out to determine the thermal performance and economic viability of making use of solar stills in water desalination.

A practical basin-type solar still
Solar Energy, 1965Abstract A basin-type solar still has been developed that is practical and economical to use in some parts of the world. Materials of construction and performance characteristics, as determined from extensive field testing and from analytical and laboratory investigations, are discussed.

Stilling Basins for Outlet Works
2023Low and intermediate flows in a stilling basin for a single conduit outlet may form an eddy in the basin. This eddy may entrap rocks and debris and result in abrasion and impact damage to the basin. This problem occurs where the invert of the conduit outlet portal is "low" with respect to tailwater. The invert of the outlet portal of a conduit is "low"

Cavitation Induced by Turbulence in Stilling Basin
Journal of the Hydraulics Division, 1980It is shown by simple arguments that is stilling basins, intense turbulence of flows could produce conditions favorable to cavitation. A free hydraulic jump occurring in a stilling basin is one case in which this spontaneous cavitation happens, at last intermittently, if the Froude number of the incoming flow is very large.
