Laboratory Analysis of the Flushing Cone Dimensions at the Upstream Bottom Outlets of Dam Reservoir for Different Entrance Shape of Bottom Outlets Using Pressure Flushing
One of the most effective techniques for removing the deposited sediments from reservoirs is pressure flushing which has only much local effects. It is often applied as a clearing process to remove sediment saround the entrance of intakes.In order to make rational design of bottom outlets and other...

One of the most effective techniques for removing the deposited sediments from reservoirs is pressure flushing which has only much local effects. It is often applied as a clearing process to remove sediment saround the entrance of intakes.In order to make rational design of bottom outlets and other sediment flushing structures, the understanding of the characteristics of a scour funnel in under pressure flushing is significant. The physical model was constructed in the Hydraulic Laboratory at the Water Sciences Engineerin Faculty of Shahid Chamran University of Ahvaz and by performing various experiments on the effect of bottom outlet shape on the volume and dimensions of flushing cone was experimentally investigated. For this purposes, the experiments on 4 bottom outlets with a circular, semicircular, rectangular and square cross-sectional area equal to 18 cm<sup>2</sup>, five water levels of 30, 45, 55, 65, 78 cm, resulting in five different discharges on the bottom outlet, was performed.
