The main drive for the present study is to investigate experimentally the energy dissipation through triangular screens. Recent experimental studies have shown that screens placed in vertical and inclined configurations below small hydraulic structures may dissipate more energy than a hydraulic jump formed in conventional stilling basins. In the present study a series of laboratory experiments were performed in order to determine the effect of triangular screens on the energy dissipation. The location of the screen from the hydraulic structure, upstream flow depth, the thickness of the screens, and the Froude number of the upstream flow are the major parameters in the laboratory experiments. Froude number of the upstream flow covered a range of 7.5 to 25.5. The results of the experiments show that triangular screens, like vertical and inclined screens, perform also very efficiently in reducing the high kinetic energy of the flowing water and that they reduce the energy at a higher rate when compared to a classical hydraulic-jump performance for the same Froude number. However, triangular screens have no superiority over the vertically placed screens or inclined screens studied previously.

Experimental investigation of energy dissipation through inclined screens
Balkış, Görkem; Bozkuş, Zafer; Department of Civil Engineering (2004)
The main goal of the present study is to investigate the energy dissipation through inclined screens. Recent studies have shown that screens arranged vertically may dissipate more energy than a hydraulic jump does below small hydraulic structures. In the present study a series of laboratory experiments were performed in order to determine the effect of inclination of the screen on the energy dissipated by the screen. The porosity of the screen used in the experiments is 40%. Inclination angle, thickness of ...
Experimental investigation of energy dissipation through triangular screens
Güngör, Endam; Bozkuş, Zafer; Department of Civil Engineering (2005)
For the present study, a series of experimental works are executed to dissipate energy through triangular screens. Recent studies have shown that the implementation of the screen for energy dissipation is an effective way to extract out the excessive energy of water downstream of small hydraulic structures located in rivers of relatively negligible sediment content. In the present study, double screen arrangement with a porosity of 40% is used. The inclination angle of the screens is opted as 60 degree. The...
Energy Dissipation Through Screens
Bozkuş, Zafer; Ger, Ahmet Metin; Özeren, Yavuz (null; 2004-07-01)
Screens may be utilized efficiently for dissipating energy of water. In this study, water flowing beneath a gate is used to simulate the flow downstream of a hydraulic structure and screens are used as an alternative tool for energy dissipation. Investigations are done conducting a series of experiments. The porosity, thickness, and the location of the screens are the major parameters together with the Froude number of the upstream flow. The experiments covered a range of Froude numbers between 5 and 18, po...

Çakır, Pınar; Bozkuş, Zafer; Ger, Metin; Department of Civil Engineering (2003)
Screens may be utilized efficiently for dissipating the energy of water. In this study, water flowing beneath a gate is used to simulate the flow downstream of a hydraulic structure and screens are used as an alternative mean for energy dissipation. Investigations are done conducting a series of experiments. The porosity, thickness, and the location of the screens are the major parameters together with the Froude number of the upstream flow. The scope of this thesis covers the situation where there is a pse...
Tailwater effect on the energy dissipation through screens
Bozkuş, Zafer (null; 2008-09-17)
Previous studies have shown that screens may be utilized efficiently for dissipating the energy of water. For the present study, a series of experiments are executed to investigate the tailwater and multiple screen effects on the energy dissipation through screens. Water flowing beneath a sliding gate is used to simulate the flow downstream of a hydraulic structure. In the present study, one double screen and two double screen arrangements with porosity of 40% and inclination angle of 90 degree is used. A t...
