Model law for motion of salt water through fresh

O'Brien, M.P. / Cherno, J.

In connection with proposed "Salt-Water Barrier" in San Francisco Bay, action of salt water when flowing through fresh water was studied by means of hydraulic models; investigation showed that model, geometrically similar to its prototype, could not be used, but that it must be distorted so that scales for dimensions, and salinity satisfy equations in paper.
