Influence of a Modified Weir Profile on Velocity Field and Dissipation Rate in Stepped Spillways: A Comparative Study Using Physical Models and Computational Fluid Dynamics
Stepped spillways are specialized hydraulic structures crafted to optimize the effective dissipation of hydraulic energy along stepped chutes.The central objective is to scrutinize and improve the mitigation of flow separation occurring from the ogee crest to the stepped chute, focusing on various jolly joes grape candy profiles within the critical
