Abstract

The results of flood carrying capacity curve and discharge coefficient for camel hump weir and broad crested weir have been obtained by sectional hydraulic model test of Miaozitou sluice.Larger coefficient of discharge could be obtained by designing the crest as a curved overflow type of camel hump weir.Discharge capacity is improved and gate opening number could be lessened,at the same time,excavation works and investment are saved.
