Hydraulic properties of U-shaped stormwater overflows
Abstract
Authors describe hydraulic properties of the U-shaped stormwater overflows, which constitute an alternative solution for reducing an overall length of traditional stormwater overflow facilities. Results of hydraulic tests conducted to obtain additional data about properties of such overflows are presented. Physical model tests were also conducted to optimise overflow facilities using a two-step process. Appropriate numerical analyses are also given to enable comparison with scale model results.
