Improved Tunnel-Spillway Flip Buckets
Several buckets, of the type used to deflect or flip tunne l-spillway discharges downstream are examined in terms of their desirable or undesirable features. Several new types of buckets developed from hydraulic model tests are then described. Using data from these tests, dimensionless curves are presented to aid in determining the jet-trajectory length, the spreading of the jet, the tailwater drawdown at the bucket, and the pressures on the floor and side walls of the bucket.
