Abstract
Compared with beeline weir, labyrinth weir can provide larger flow capacity with the same water head above the weir. The influencing factors of the discharge coefficient of labyrinth weir are expatiated from the aspect of dimensional analysis, and the calculation formulae for the discharge coefficient of labyrinth weir are fitted on the basis of summary of several calculation methods of discharge coefficient of labyrinth weir of other scholars. The research can provide convenient ways of calculation for the actual uses.
