Hydraulic Model Test Applied in Water Control Project for Risk-Elimination and Reinforcement of the West Bridge

Abstract:

According to the current situation of water control project, the existing problems and the audit opinions of superior administrative departments, water control pivot of the West Bridge over the Aksu River is in urgent need of risk-elimination and reinforcement. Based on hydraulic model test, discharge capacity and sand transporting effect of floodgate and scouring sluice as well as design reasonability of energy dissipation and erosion control structure at pivot downstream have been observed and measured in risk-elimination and reinforcement of the West Bridge. It is indicated in experimental research, compared with the designed flow and checked flow in the design, the measured water levels of the floodgate are 0.43m and 0.47m lower, and measured water levels of scouring sluice are 0.12m and 0.15m lower; opening ten holes of the floodgate can take significant sand transporting effect, while scouring sluice makes insignificant sand transporting effect; it is suggested that design institute shall take erosion control measures into consideration within 100m to the floodgate tank.
