Scour due to turbulent wall jets downstream of low-/high-head hydraulic structures

Scour due to turbulent wall jets downstream of low-/high-head hydraulic structures

To overcome over-prediction of the scour depths by existing methods, a mathematical model is developed based on a work transfer theory. This model predicts the equilibrium scour hole’s depth and length due to two-dimensional turbulent wall jets downstream of low-/high-head hydraulic structures. The...
