Hydraulic Model Study of Buffalo Bill Dam and Spillway Rehabilitation
A new, increased inflow design flood and increased power generation requirements for 75-year-old Buffalo Bill Dam promoted modifications to the existing dam, spillway, and powerplant. A hydraulic model study investigated the proposed designs for the spillway and dam rehabilitation. The spillway approach channel configuration was determined and gate opening discharge curves were developed for 20.5- by 28-foot top-seal radial gates operating under a maximum head of 115 feet. The spillways tunnel geometry was changed to a modified horseshoe shape and realigned to reduce the potential for erosion in the riverbed downstream. A broad crest shape was developed for passing discharge over the top of the dam.
