Three-Dimensional Flow of a Vortex Drop Shaft Spillway with an Elliptical Tangential Inlet

Three-Dimensional Flow of a Vortex Drop Shaft Spillway with an Elliptical Tangential Inlet

Vortex drop shaft (VDS) spillways are eco-friendly hydraulic structures used for safely releasing flood. However, due to the complexity of the three-dimensional rotational flow and the lack of suitable measuring devices, current experimental work cannot interpret the flow behavior reliably inside th...
