Abstract

THE FLOW AT THE ENTRANCE TO THE TWO-WAY DROP INLET IS ANALYZED THEORETICALLY AND AN EXPRESSION FOR THE LOSS COEFFICIENT AT THE CREST IS DEVELOPED. IT IS ASSUMED THAT A JET FORMS IN THE DROP INLET AND THAT THE CREST HEAD LOSS IS A RESULT OF THE EXPANSION OF THIS JET. THE THEORETICAL LOSS IS A SIMPLE FUNCTION OF THE JET WIDTH. THIS WIDTH CAN BE DETERMINED BY FREE STREAMLINE POTENTIAL FLOW METHODS. THE THEORETICAL CREST LOSS COEFFICIENTS COMPARE WELL WITH EXPERIMENTAL VALUES. /ASCE/
