Abstract:In the small-scale and steep channels for irrigation or drainage on the mountainous areas, bottom intakes or bottom divisions are safer and more economical than other types of diverging facility. The hydraulic characteristic of that kind of structure has not been made clear, even though the detail of it would be necessary for reasonable design. In this study, the flow around a bottom intake is analyzed experimentally, and also theoretically as potential flow using the hodograph and conformal mapping. In the an… Show more
