Abstract

The objective of this research is to investigate how the shape of stilling basin affects the flow and the principal dimension of local scour downstream heading up Structures. Twenty-sixth type shapes of stilling basin have been designed in conjunction with weirs. Seventy-two runs were conducted considering various stilling basin shape with different flow conditions. Relationship between the shape of the stilling basin, slow conditions and scour parameters were developed from the data obtained from experimental tests.
