Abstract The attention of researchers and engineers has been attracted to gabion weirs due their environmental, hydraulic, stability capabilities compared with solid weirs. One the possible problems is partial blockage caused by sedimentation upstream them. This research experiment investigates hydraulic performance broad-crested (GBCWs) an blockage. For this purpose, a total 147 experiments we...

Labyrinth weirs are utilized to transport a greater discharge during floods in contrast conventional due their increased weir crest length. Nevertheless, the geometric complexity of labyrinth weirs, determination accurate coefficients and accordingly, head-discharge ratings quite essential issues practical application. Hence, as first step present study proposes following eight standalone algor...

Abstract Present study highlights the behavior of weir crest head and width parameter on discharge coefficient a compound broad crested (CBC) weir. Computational fluid dynamics model (CFD) is validated with laboratory experimental investigations. In analysis through weirs, upstream over (h) crucial, where result mainly dependent upon length (L) in transverse direction to flow, water depth from ...

In this contribution, different 3D numerical approaches are applied in order to simulate the behaviour of turbulent flow through a rectangular channel with broad-crested weirs. addition, water velocities, using Acoustic Doppler Velocimetry (ADV) instrumentation, were recorded. Two turbulence quantities estimated laboratory records and compared those computed Large Eddy Simulation (LES) Reynolds...
