In this study an extensive experimental research is carried out to develop a better understanding of the effects of Piano Key (PK) weir geometry on weir flow threshold submergence. Experiments were conducted in a 12 m long, 0.4 m wide and 0.7 m deep rectangular glass wall flume. The main objectives were to investigate the effect of the PK weir geometries including the weir length, weir height, ...

the rectangular broad crested weirs are widely used to measure the water dischargewhich is one of the most popular tools in the irrigation canals particularly, in developingcountries.the present article is trying to demonstrate the results of an experimental work carriedout on rectangular broad crested weir with sloped upstream face to investigate the effect ofupstream slope on discharge effici...

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...

The packing of submicrometer sized silica beads inside a microchannel was enabled by a novel method which avoids the complication and limitations of generating a frit using conventional approaches and the restriction of flow using a submicrometer sized weir. A micrometer sized weir and two short columns of 5 μm and 800 nm silica beads packed in succession behind the weir together functioned as ...

in the present study, experimental investigations about the hydrodynamics of the conical cap tray (concap tray) have been carried out. the concap tray is an innovative and novel type of cap trays. the effect of the different weir height (2.5, 5 and 7 cm) on the weeping, entrainment and the total pressure drop for the concap tray was measured, compared and correlated. the hydraulic experiments w...

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...

side weirs are flow diversion devices that are widely used in irrigation, drainage and urban sewage systems. the present study focuses on the investigation of the effect of oblique side weirs on the discharge coefficient of a side weir under subcritical flow condition in rectangular channels. in this study 106 laboratory tests were conducted and the results were analyzed to find out the influen...

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...

UNLABELLED The limit of the Colletotrichum gloeosporioides species complex is defined genetically, based on a strongly supported clade within the Colletotrichum ITS gene tree. All taxa accepted within this clade are morphologically more or less typical of the broadly defined C. gloeosporioides, as it has been applied in the literature for the past 50 years. We accept 22 species plus one subspec...
