Characteristics of clustered particles in skimming flows on a stepped spillway
Air–water flows at hydraulic structures are commonly observed and called white waters. The free-surface aeration is characterised by some intense exchanges of air and water leading to complex air–water structures including some clustering. The number and properties of clusters may provide some measure of the level of particle-turbulence and particle–particle interactions in the high-velocity ai...
متن کاملStepped Spillway Flows and Air Entrainment
Stepped spillways have become a popular method for handling flood releases. The steps increase significantly the rate of energy dissipation taking place on the spillway face and reduce the size of the required downstream energy dissipation basin. The compatibility of stepped spillways with roller compacted concrete (RCC) and gabion construction techniques results in low additional cost for the ...
متن کاملTriple decomposition technique in air–water flows: Application to instationary flows on a stepped spillway
Self-sustained instabilities and pseudo-periodic motion may be observed in hydraulic structures and industrial flows. Documented examples include the hydraulic jump, sloshing motion in a reservoir and surging waves in pooled stepped spillways. The instabilities may generate some very large turbulence levels and integral turbulent scales, combining the contributions of both slow fluctuations and...
متن کاملScale Effects in High-velocity Air-water Flows on a Stepped Spillway
A comparative analysis of air-water flow properties was performed between two geometrically scaled stepped spillway models with step height of 5 and 10 cm respectively. The experiments were conducted in the same large size facility with chute slope of 26.6° and with the same phase-detection intrusive measurement devices. A full range of macroand microscopic air-water flow properties was tested ...
متن کاملModel Investigations of Stepped Spillway
Stepped block protection has considerable potential as a low-cost method for the construction of chute spillways and the protection of embankments from erosion by overtopping flow. Stepped spillways are structurally stable, resistant to water loads and significantly increase the rate of energy dissipation on the spillway face thus eliminating or greatly reducing the need for a large energy diss...
