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...

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...

Side weirs are used in open channels to control flood and the flow passing through it. Discharge capacity is one of the crucial hydraulic parameters of side weirs. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of the intended dimensionless parameters on predicting the discharge coefficient of triangular labyrinth side weir. MAPE, RMSE, and R2 statistic indexes have been used to assess the ac...

INTRODUCTION The objective of this study is to provide a synthesis of the pertinent design criteria for submerged bendway weirs. The technical paper is an extension of previous research conducted by the National Center for Computational Hydroscience and Engineering (NCCHE) at the University of Mississippi on the hydrodynamic effects on flow characteristics and effectiveness of submerged bendway...

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...

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...

The piano key (PK) weir has advanced over the labyrinth to increase discharge capacity. Piano weirs exhibit nonlinear flow behavior and are easy place on existing spillway or newly constructed dam with less base area. Various investigators given equations calculate coefficient for free submerged conditions. study focuses reviewing impacts of PK geometry coefficient, including length height, ups...
