Effects of Converging Sidewalls on Skimming Flow over Converging Stepped Spillway

A numerical study is conducted for converging stepped spillways with various spillway slopes, sidewall convergence and flow discharges to understand the influences of converging sidewalls on skimming flows. Compared with the traditional uniform-width stepped spillway, the converging sidewall changes...
