    Effect of Downstream Expansion of a Long-Throated Flume on Flow Properties
    (Gazi Univ, 2021) Hatipoglu, Murat; Gogus, Mustafa; Ucar, Muhammed
    Long throated flumes are widely used flow measurement devices that not requiring site-specific level to flow curves and therefore laboratory experiments. In this study, downstream expansion effect of the long throated flumes with rectangular cross section were analysed for the dimensionless parameters derived from Buckingham's pi theorem and some other known hydraulic quantities such as discharge coefficient, approach velocity coefficient, submergence ratio of the flow etc. Therefore, five downstream transitions with different expansion angles were tested. In each test, the critical depth y(c), the flow head at the depth measurement section h(1), minimum required energy dissipater length L-t and the head after hydraulic jump y(2) were measured for both modular and free flow conditions. The relation of hydraulic quantities of calculated dimensionless parameters with relevant parameters; modular limits, approach velocity coefficients and discharge coefficients etc. were graphed to represent the design relationships for long throated flumes.

    Flow Rate Along the Length of the Swirling Vortex Axis at an Intake
    (Turkish Chamber Civil Engineers, 2021) Yildirim, Nevzat; Tastan, Kerem
    In this study, the characteristics of the flow in the region of swirling vortex are examined. The potential flow model based on the summing infinite number of spherical sinks along the vortex core is introduced to predict the flow field and the flow rate along the vortex axis. The flow towards the swirling vortex core has considerable effects on the radial velocity distribution within the ambient fluid flow region near the intake. The agreement between available test data relating to the radial velocity and the method introduced in this study is found to be satisfactory.
