Hydraulic jump type II stilling basin is generally preferred as an energy dissipator for ogee spillway but it is uneconomical due to longer structure. On the other hand, roller bucket uses relatively shorter structure over a sloping apron or horizontal stilling basin. In this study, an attempt has been made to evaluate the performance of an ogee profile stepped spillway in combination with solid roller bucket and stilling basin type II for energy dissipation. Laboratory experiments are performed on a physical working model of ogee profile stepped spillway at discharge ranging from 0.0032 to 0.0069 m3 /s for a head of 1.5m, 4m & 7m and the results compared for energy dissipation (non-dimensional parameter (y c / h) = 0.69). The model results show that stepped spillway model without v-notch achieves 92.40 % energy dissipation. Thus this model is found to be more suitable to acquire the ideal condition of sequent depth and tail water depth in stilling basin for all the discharges.

In ogee spillway, the released flood water from crest to toe possesses a high amount of kinetic energy causing scour and erosion on the spillway structure. The dam projects normally have a stilling basin as an energy dissipater which has specific energy dissipation limitations. The stepped spillway is a better option to minimize kinetic energy along the chute and safely discharge water in the river domain. The Khadakwasla dam is situated in Pune, Maharashtra (India), and has scouring and erosion issues on the chute of ogee spillway and on the stilling basin. The present study develops a physical hydraulic model for the dam spillway with steps, plain and slotted roller bucket as per IS Code 6934 (1998) and IS Code 7365 (2010). Experiments were performed at heads of 4m (low head) and 6m (high head) on the developed physical models, namely on the plain and slotted roller bucket model for the ogee spillway and the plain and slotted roller bucket model for the stepped spillway. It was found that the plain roller bucket of ogee spillway dissipates 81.26% of energy at the low head, whereas the stepped spillway with slotted roller bucket dissipates the 83.86% of the energy at the high head.

Limited by large unit discharge above the overflow weir and deep tail water inside the stilling basin, the incoming flow inside stilling basin is seriously short of enough energy dissipation and outgoing flow still carries much energy with large velocity, bound to result in secondary hydraulic jump outside stilling basin and scour downstream river bed. Based on the RNG k-ε turbulence model and the VOF method, this paper comparatively studies flow field between the conventional flat gate pier program and the incompletely flaring gate pier program to reveal energy dissipation mechanism of incomplete flaring gate pier. Results show that incompletely flaring gate pier can greatly promote the longitudinally stretched water jet to laterally diffuse and collide in the upstream region of stilling basin due to velocity gradients between adjacent inflow from each chamber through shrinking partial overflow flow chamber weir chamber, which would lead to large scale vertical axis vortex from the bottom to the surface and enhance mutual shear turbulence dissipation. This would significantly increase energy dissipation inside stilling basin to reduce outgoing velocity and totally solve the common hydraulic problems in large unit discharge and deep tail water projects.

The construction of stilling basin with adverse slope change the characteristics of hydraulic jump such as sequent depth ratio, length of jump ratio, length of roller and energy dissipation ratio, consequently the dimensions of stilling basin are changed, also using baffle blocks with different configurations develop these characteristics. In this study different shapes of baffle block (models (A), (B), (C) and (D)) installed in the stilling basins at adverse slopes (- 0.03, - 0.045, - 0.06) in addition to horizontal bed, all these models are tested in the stilling basin to show their effects on the characteristics of hydraulic jump, the experiments applied for the range of Froude number (Fr1) between 3.99 and 7.48. The baffle block model (D) showed good results when compared with models (B) and (C), therefore it used with arrangement of (single and double row) and compared with baffle block model (A) at slopes (0, - 0.03, - 0.045, - 0.06) to study the effects of baffle blocks on hydraulic jump when bed slopes are changed. In general using baffle block caused a reduction in sequent depth ratio, length of jump ratio and the length of the roller, but the energy dissipation ratio increased.

Abstract In the present paper, an optimization procedure is proposed for stepped spillway design dimensions, which leads to maximum energy dissipation rate and minimum construction cost considering independently the chute cost and stilling basin cost. Three independent objective functions are thus simultaneously satisfied. The procedure involves four main tools: The multi-objective particle swarm optimization method (MOPSO) to find Pareto solutions in one run, the K-means clustering algorithm to reduce the size of the obtained non-dominated solutions, the pseudo-weight vector approach (PWV) to facilitate the decision making and to select some adequate solutions, and finally, CFD simulations to analyze the retained optimal solutions. The suitability of the proposed procedure is tested through an example of application. As results, a set of twenty solutions with different satisfaction levels are found and compared to existing solutions. A multi-objective optimization problem may have many different solutions, the originality of the present work lies in the proposed procedure which explores several possible ones and reduces their number to give help for the decision making. Furthermore, an approximate expression of spillway total cost is also derived as a function of flow energy dissipation rate.

For understanding the effect of resonant helical magnetic field (RHF) and bias on the edge plasma turbulent transport, the radial and poloidal electric field (Er, EP), poloidal and toroidal magnetic field (BP, Br) were detected by the Langmuir probe, magnetic probe and diamagnetic loop. The poloidal, toroidal and radial velocity (VP, Vr, Vt) can be determined from the electric and magnetic field. In the present work, we have investigated the effect of the magnitude of bias (Vbias = 200v, Vbias = 320v) on Er, EP, BP, Bt, VP, Vr, Vt. Moreover, we applied RHF with L = 2, L = 3 and L = 2 and 3 and investigate the effect of the helical windings radius on above parameters. Also, the experiment was repeated by applying the positive biasing potentials and RHF's simultaneously. The results show that by applying bias to the plasma at t = 15 msec at r/a = 0.9, Er, BP and Bt increase while EP decreases. The best modification occurs at Vbias = 200v. By applying RHF to the plasma, both the electric and magnetic field vary. Er reaches the highest in the presence of RHF with L = 3. The same results are obtained for BP, Bt, VP and Vt. While the inverse results are obtained for EP and Vr. Finally, RHF and bias are applied simultaneously to the plasma. With applied bias with Vbias = 200v and RHF with L = 2 and 3, we reach to the ideal circumstance. The same results obtain in the situation with Vbias = 320v and RHF with L = 2 and 3.

Flooding is an obstacle for water infrastructure which installed in a river system in Ciliwung, West Java, Indonesia. The climate change triggers unpredictable rainfall which occurs in the watershed, therefore the vulnerability of river and other infrastructures are alarming. The rehabilitation and maintenance strategies are needed to make water infrastructures in the river system obtain lower damage. The research aims to simulate the 2-D HEC-RAS modelling of river system and stability. The result produces the water level of the river even in 1000-year discharge flood. Also, the research proposes the earth embankment dam for flood reduction in the watershed. The dam is designed according to the ideal condition. The simulation of HEC-RAS shows that the river experiences flooding in a certain condition. Besides, the research concludes that designed dam could overcome the flooding problem and suitable strategy for water infrastructure maintenance towards flooding impacts. Further investigation towards soil data for designed dam should be further analyzed to obtain better and comprehensive understanding.
