Side spillways for regulating diversion canals
Deals with design of automatic head-works for Ouse-Great Lake Canal in Tasmania; as head-works are likely to become coated with ice for several weeks at a time, forces applied to move gate must be large, and for this reason gates operated by floats were found to be unsuitable; writer investigated theory of flow in side spilling channel with view to devising type of regulator without moving parts; paper presents theory developed, describes experiments carried out to test it, and adaptation of theory to design of automatic head-works for Ouse-Great Lake Canal.
