Flood release structures of high-head dams generate high-velocity plunging jets. These may scour the downstream rocky riverbed and even damage the dam foundation. Assessment of the scour evolution is essential to ensure the safety of the dam and appurtenan ...
In this study the scour mechanism and the effect of some of the important parameters such as jet velocities, impinging jet distance from the upstream wall and tailwater depth on the longitudinal scour profile due to 3d simoultaneous wall and impinging jet ...
The dissipation of energy of flood discharges from water releasing structures of dams is often done by plunging jets diffusing in water and impacting on the riverbed downstream. The construction of expensive concrete structures for energy dissipation can b ...
A systematic experimental study was performed to elucidate the conditions for which cellular patterns of diluted hydrogen diffusion flames near extinction were observed. The formation of cellular instabilities was studied for several burners: jet burners ( ...
Jets generated at chute ends move a potential scour zone away from the dam, and dissipate flow energy to reduce the scour. Usually, so-called flip buckets or ski jumps are provided to generate jets, yet they are rarely issued by deflectors. The application ...
High-velocity plunging jets, issuing from ood release structures of dams, may result in scouring of the rocky riverbed and even endanger the foundation of the dams. Assessment of the scour extent is essential to ensure the safety of the dam and appurtenant ...
Spillways often include a flip bucket as terminal energy dissipator, combined with a plunge pool. To prevent scour at the river bed for large jet fall heights additional measures are required, such as terminal chute widening or increase of the plunge pool ...
Low pressure plasma spraying (LPPS) is a thermal spraying technique that has found a niche for low oxidation products. It uses a low pressure environment (i.e:, chamber pressure between 2 and 90 kPa) and yields supersonic plasma jets. The enthalpy probe te ...
The safety of dams is very often endangered by the formation of scour near the foundation as a result of high-velocity jet impact. These jets issue from appurtenant structures such as spillways and may impact in the immediate vicinity of the dam toe. The p ...
Measurement of key plasma jet properties, such as the Mach number, electron density and temperature, in a low pressure environment, were performed using double Langmuir probes and Mach probes. In particular, under-expanded jets are studied in detail by per ...
