abstract

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 past a circular-crested weir is analyzed using simplified euler equations to determine the discharge coefficient. also, velocity distribution profile and theoretical method were evaluated through physical models of circular-crested weirs of various radii and heights. it was found that the proposed method agrees well with the experimental observations. also, it was seen that the estimations of discharge coefficient are close to their experimental values within 3 percentage of error.

Effect of Height of Sharp-Crested Weir on Discharge Coefficient

Weirs have widely been used for the flow measurement, flow diversion and its control in the open channels. Attempts have been made to study flow over different shapes of normal weirs, side weirs and oblique weirs. This paper is connected with the development of the discharge coefficient measurement. In the present study four different weirs in different height are considered for validation purp...

A laboratory investigation on the potential of computational intelligence approaches to estimate the discharge coefficient of piano key weir

The piano key weir (PKW) is a type of nonlinear control structure that can be used to increase unit discharge over linear overflow weir geometries, particularly when the weir footprint area is restricted To predict the outflow passing over a piano key weir, the discharge coefficient in the general equation of weir needs to be known. This paper presents the results of laboratory model testing of...

comparison of different discharge estimation methods for sharp-crested semi-circular side weir under subcritical flow regimes

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...
