Spillway design is key to the effective and safe operation of dams. Typically, flow characterized by high velocity, levels turbulence, aeration. In last two decades, advances in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) made available several numerical tools aid hydraulic structures engineers. The most frequent approach solve Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations using an Euler type model combined...

the security and stability of dams for flood passing through the spillway should be provided. so, kinetic energy of flow over large spillway must be dissipated. one of the energy dissipation structures at downstream dams, are plunging pools. the aim of this paper is to investigate dynamic pressure that is created by the impact of a series of rounded non-submerged jets on a flat plate with the r...
