In the present study, effects of different oblique angles and diameters on cylindrical weir below a gate as combined device have been studied experimentally. For this purpose, sixteen models weir-gate structures tested in laboratory flume. These had four α (300, 450, 600, 900). each angle, diameter changed times (4, 7.3, 9, 11cm). The results all indicate that theoretical discharge (Qth) is inv...

This study presents a spatial analysis of physical and biotic river conditions below a low head hydro scheme in the River Goyt, UK. The overall aim was to assess whether changes in localized hydrological features, introduced by low head hydro, affect phytobenthic biomass. Single point and profile measurements of flow velocity and velocity vectors, elevation, depth and biofilm biomass were mappe...

Schistosomiasis is a parasitic disease mostly found in areas along the Changjiang River, Oncomelanias is the only intermediate host of schistosomiasis. Oncomelania entering into farmland or the residential zones through the flood discharge or irrigation system is the main reason of spreading schistosomiasis. Therefore it is most essential and effective way to control diffusion of oncomelanias a...

Abstract The compound labyrinth weir is a new type of that considered good applicable choice for increasing the capacity discharge. flow over complex problem because behavior three-dimensional. present study aims to simulate into critical regions cannot be observed when using an experimental test. computational fluid dynamics (CFD) programme was utilised implement sensitive analysis this purpos...
