Hydrodynamic pressures on a stepped spillway with an aerator system subjected to different air flow rates

Hydrodynamic pressures on a stepped spillway with an aerator system subjected to different air flow rates

ABSTRACT Aerator systems promote additional insertion of air into the flow and can reduce the risk of cavitation and consequent damage to hydraulic structures. This work analyzes the hydrodynamic pressures on the steps of a physical model (with a chute inclination of 53.13º) subjected to different a...
