Flow Resistance and Design Guidelines for Embankment Stepped Chutes
Recently the design flows of many dams have been re-evaluated, resulting in spills often larger than the original ones. In many cases, occurrence of revised flows would result in dam overtopping because of insufficient storage and spillway capacity of reservoirs. Embankment dams whilst common are more likely to fail than other dam types when overtopped in an uncontrolled manner because of breac...
متن کاملHydraulics of stepped chutes: The transition flow L’hydraulique des chutes en marches d’escalier: L’écoulement de transition
Stepped spillway flows may behave as a succession of free-falling nappes at low flows and as a skimming flow at large discharges. However there is a range of intermediate flow rates characterised by a chaotic flow motion associated with intense splashing: i.e. the transition flow regime. Detailed air–water flow properties in transition flows were measured in two large experimental facilities. T...
متن کاملFlow Regime Prediction in Stepped Channels Using Neural Computing Technique
A chute is characterized by a steep bed slope associated with torrential flow. This chute flow may be either smooth or stepped. The flow conditions in stepped channels are classified as nappe flow, transition flow and skimming flow. In this paper, hydraulic characteristics of flow regimes on the stepped channels are presented systematically under a wide range of discharge, channel slope and ste...
متن کاملA Transition Flow Regime on Stepped Spillways the Facts
The stepped channel design have been used since more than 3,000 years. It is understood that low flows behave as successions of free-jets (i.e. nappe flow) while large discharges skim over the pseudo-bottom formed by the step edges. For a range of intermediate flow rates, a transition flow regime takes place. The dominant feature is stagnation on the horizontal step face associated with signifi...
متن کاملParadoxical Low-Flow, Low-Gradient Aortic Stenosis
Low-flow, low-gradient aortic stenosis (AS) is a highly challenging condition in terms of diagnosis and therapeutic management. The transvalvular pressure gradient is inversely related to the square of aortic valve area (AVA) and directly related to the square of flow. Hence, a patient with severe AS may nonetheless present with a low gradient if his or her left ventricular (LV) output is reduc...
