CURRENT PROJECT: 

1) South Diversion Channel

The objectives of this 1/30 scale model are:

-         Observe flow pattern around designed Coanda-screen set-up,

-         Identify the type and dimensions for different required diversion structures required to adjust the flow and settle the sediments before the Coanda-screens, and

-         Provide design recommendations

 

 

2) Supercritical Lateral Outlet Flow

Various lateral outflows from supercritical channels are tested to assist in determining design guidance with respect to:  angle of lateral outflow, guiding vanes, and ratio of outflow to channel flow.
