Labyrinth Weirs: A Look Into Geometric Variation and Its Effect on Efficiency and Design Method Predictions

The rehabilitation of dams often requires spillway capacity upgrades. Replacing a less hydraulically efficient linear weir with a labyrinth weir can be an effective way to increase discharge efficiency (discharge at a given upstream head) for a fixed-width channel. Labyrinth weirs are linear weirs f...
