Transport Capability of Intake Vortices at Horizontal Intake Structures
Abstract Transport capability of intake vortices at horizontal intake structures was investigated by small-scale physical model tests on a scale of 1:5. The intention was to develop a prediction model which allows an evaluation of the transport capability of intake vortices on the basis of a calculated probability for various floating solids for a given geometry of intake structure. It could be demonstrated that the transport capability of intake vortices under constant geometrical boundary conditions can be determined on the basis of (i) the present hydraulic boundary conditions and (ii) the characteristics of the floating solids (density and diameter). A prediction model developed on this basis allows an estimation of the transport of floating solids for the present boundary conditions.
