Experimental Study of Turbulence Manipulation in Stepped Spillways. Implications on Flow Resistance in Skimming Flows
Current expertise in air-water turbulent flows on stepped chutes is limited to laboratory experiments at low to moderate Reynolds numbers on flat horizontal steps. In this study, highly turbulent air-water flows skimming down a large-size stepped chute were systematically investigated with a 22o slope. Turbulence manipulation was conducted using vanes or longitudinal ribs to enhance interaction...
متن کاملEnergy dissipation, flow resistance and gas-liquid interfacial area in skimming flows on moderate-slope stepped spillways
With the re-evaluation and revision of a number of design floods, several embankment overtopping protection systems have been developed and a common technique is the construction of a stepped spillway on the downstream slope. For such moderate slope stepped channels, detailed air–water flow measurements were performed in a large facility with a focus on the rate of energy dissipation, flow resi...
متن کاملStepped spillways for embankment dams. Review, progress and development in overflow hydraulics
In recent years a number of embankments were designedwith concrete overtopping protection shaped in a stepped fashion. During large overflows on stepped chutes, there is no skin friction between mainstream and steps, and flow resistance is basically form drag. Alterations of flow recirculation and of fluid exchanges between free-stream and cavity flow are discussed in this study. A comprehensiv...
متن کاملAir Entrainment and Pressure Development in Skimming Flow on an Abrupt Slope Change on Stepped Spillways
Numerous stepped spillways were built to date, namely on RCC gravity dams or on valley flanks besides embankment or rockfill dams, while some others are currently under design or construction. In some cases, slope changes may be required on stepped chutes, due to the topography, leading to reduced excavation and related economic benefits. A quite limited number of stepped spillways have been bu...
