Flushing Operations of Hydroelectric Sluice Gates: An Experimental Analysis

Author(s): G. R. Pisaturo; M. Righetti

Linked Author(s): Giuseppe Roberto Pisaturo

Keywords: Bed erosion; Flushing events; Hydroelectric sluice weirs; Flow rate dependency

Abstract: In this paper the bed erosion dynamics during flushing events are analyzed. The hydraulic structures studied are hydroelectric sluice weirs. The experiments show that exists a strong dependency between the eroded volume and the flow rate.
