摘要
Measurements of the free-surface profile over a laboratory-scale, rectangular broad-crested weir were compared with numerical calculations using commercial software. Although the geometry of the weir is simple, the fluid mechanics is complex with regions of separated flow that affect its hydrometric performance. For the given flow rate, the prediction of the upstream water depth was excellent and the rapidly-varied flow profile over the crest was reproduced quite well. In the supercritical flow downstream, a stationary wave profile was observed and reproduced in form by the calculations. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
