Tests of structure orientation spillway, and lock emergency gate, Barkley lock and dam, Cumberland river, Kentucky
Hydraulic model investigations for Barkley Dam were concerned with orientation of lock, spillway, and powerhouse structures; determination of feasibility of discharging lock culverts into spillway stilling basin; development of optimum designs for laterally sloping stilling basin, training walls and lock culvert discharge manifolds; and verification of hydraulic loads on lock emergency gate; 1 to 120-scale comprehensive model, 1 to 36-scale section model, and 1 to 25-scale model of lock emergency gate were used in study.
