Abstract
Gated conduits involve high-velocity air-water flow. When the studies on the gated conduits are examined, it is determined that the air-demand ratio changed according to the hydraulic and geometric parameters. However, no study has investigated the effect of the cross-sectional geometry of high-head conduits with a sluice gate on the air-demand ratio. In this study, the effect of conduit cross-sectional geometry on the air-demand ratio is examined. Results indicate that conduit cross-sectional geometry is an important effect on the air-demand ratio, especially at 10% and 15% gate opening rates. It is seen that the effect of the conduit geometry on the air-demand ratio decreases at 20%, and greater gate opening rates. Moreover, a formula for the air-demand ratio is presented relating the air-demand ratio to the gate opening rate, Froude number, hydraulic radius, and conduit length was presented for estimating the air-demand ratio.
期刊介绍:
Water Management publishes papers on all aspects of water treatment, water supply, river, wetland and catchment management, inland waterways and urban regeneration.
Topics covered: applied fluid dynamics and water (including supply, treatment and sewerage) and river engineering; together with the increasingly important fields of wetland and catchment management, groundwater and contaminated land, waterfront development and urban regeneration. The scope also covers hydroinformatics tools, risk and uncertainty methods, as well as environmental, social and economic issues relating to sustainable development.
