one of the most important discharge control ways in hydraulic structures is side weir which is used in irrigation, water distribution, waste-water engineering, drainage, flood control and other water related projects.in order to increases cm value and control on water surface when there is restriction in the weir length(l), side weir with different geometry is used. in present research seventhl...

different construction materials with different roughness used to make circular weirs highly affect surface roughness and, in turn, flow hydraulics passing over these structures.  in the present research, numerous experiments under different hydraulic conditions were performed on a physical model to study the effects of roughness on flow hydraulics over a circular weir. the flow hydraulics incl...

side weir is a flow control structure that used extensively in irrigation and drainage as well as sewer networks. throughout the present research, a study comprised of 162 experiments was done on sharp-crested semi-circular side weir. since the height in this side weir varies along its length, this feature enables it to more properly control flood than rectangular side weirs in various flood co...

abstract weirs are the most common structures for discharge measurement in engineering research. streamline curvature, non hydrostatic pressure distribution on weir and nappe adherence to the weir lead to differences between calculated and measured discharges. thus discharge coefficient, which is the ratio of real and theoretic discharges, is usually less than unity. in circular weirs the press...

circular- crested weirs are employed for flow measurement among their other wide applications in hydraulic engineering. they can also be used to control water level in farm ponds and reservoirs. advantages of the circular crested weirs as compared to other weirs include the stable overflow pattern, the simplicity of design and their associated lower costs. in this study, the curvilinear flow pa...

Different flow-altering methods, such as W−Weirs, have been developed to reduce erosion. For this study, we performed two experiments: (1) installing a W−Weir in various positions determine the best angle for placement, and (2) investigating variation of flow patterns bed shear stress distribution 90-degree sharp bend by measuring 3D components velocities, with without where greatest scour dept...
