Spillway .

Flume specifications
0.8 m wide 9 m long 0.5 m deep
Tilting flume enabling wide range of spillway slopes
Connected to WRLs recirculation facility enabling continuous flow rates of up to 400 l/s
Transparent walls and base allowing detailed flow observations from all sides
Modular structure allowing for downstream energy dissipaters
Large header tank (4.5 m long 2 m wide 2.8 m high) for calm inflow conditions
Modular structure of header tank allows uncontrolled and gated spillway flows
Typical investigations
Design optimisation of spillways and stilling basins
Energy dissipation performances of hydraulic structures
High-velocity free-surface flows
Three dimensional air-water flows
Re-aeration and air-water mass transfer processes
Flow resistance and flow structure interactions
