Abstract
Tests made to develop rules for the design of a stilling basin to dissipate hydrodynamic energy are described in this paper. The energy dissipator has been named the SAF stilling basin, SAF (denoting "Saint Anthony Falls") being a coined word used to differentiate this design from other stilling basin designs. In size, this stilling basin is the smallest known to the writer. The size is reduced through the use of baffles and sills within the stilling basin to assist in the dissipation of the energy of water flowing at high velocities.
