Flow around 180° bends in open rectangular channels
Theoretical analysis of head losses occurring in 180° open channel bends is developed based on moment of momentum and continuity principles; experimental data with various flow conditions and several bend geometries are presented to check theory; circular arc guide vanes are used as means of minimizing total head losses and, on average, these reduced losses by 67%; conditions causing hydraulic jump immediately downstream from bend and means for its elimination are considered.
