Observation of flow conditions with B=40 and 80cm

Description

In the case of low relative drop height (ratio of abrupt drop height to supercritical depth above the drop), a wave type flow is formed for a large downstream depth. The hydraulic condition for the formation of the wave type flow has been clarified in the Journal of Hydraulic Research, IAHR (Ohtsu and Yasuda 1991). The experiment was conducted in Environmental Hydraulic Laboratory of Nihon University (College of Science and Technology).

IAHR Media Library

This web site was launched by Prof. Michele Mossa of the Polytechnic University of Bari (Italy) with the initial support of Fondazione Caripuglia, Bari, Italy for the Research Project LIC-MON of 2003 and of the Project IMCA (Integrated Monitoring of Coastal Areas) financed by MIUR PON D.M. 593/00. Later, the initiative was supported with other Prof. Michele Mossa’s funds, most recently provided by the RITMARE Project.
