Experimental Study on Flow Conditions of Jiaogang Ship Lock during Sluice Gate Hoist

Article Preview

Abstract:

The physical model of Jiaogang Ship Lock is established. Through model test, the flow condition in lock chamber and approach channel is studied. The results indicate when the upstream water level keeps high and the water level difference between upstream and downstream is less than 0.5 meter, the main flow oscillates less during spring tide flux and reflux in the flood year. When the upper water level is 0.96 m and during spring tide flux and reflux in the flood year, the flow is from downstream to upstream and the flow is smooth. When the upper water level is greater than lower water level, the sluice gate hoist condition is tidal range less than 0.3m in tide flux and less than 0.4m in tide reflux. Under the critical water level conditions, the Jiaogang Ship Lock sluice gate can be hoisted safely.
