Triangular Side Weirs
Publication: Journal of Irrigation and Drainage Engineering
Volume 113, Issue 1
Abstract
Discharge characteristics of sharp and broad‐crested triangular side weirs have been experimentally investigated. Relations between discharge coefficient and main channel Froude number for different apex angles have been established.
