Description
Abstract:Energy dissipators are an important element of hydraulic structures as transition between the highly erosive high velocity flow and the sensitive tailwater. It highlights energy dissipators mainly in connection with dam structures and provides an up-to-date state of the art on a highly specialized topic and gives a current review of design methods. the book comprises chapters in farious fields such as hydraulic jump, stilling basins, ski jumps and plunge pools but introduces also a general account on various methods of dissipation, as well as the governing flow mechanism.
