Abstract
This paper details a new design for labyrinth side weirs, which has been tested and analyzed. The proposed geometry for this labyrinth side weir differs from a triangular labyrinth side weir, in that it is asymmetric in plan. The hydraulic behavior of the present labyrinth side weir, with a constant opening length, different weir heights and asymmetric labyrinth side weir included angles has been experimentally investigated in the subcritical situation. Based on the analysis of more than 180 experimental data, an equation for discharge coefficient of the asymmetric triangular labyrinth side weir has been presented. The results show that the discharge coefficient of the asymmetric labyrinth side weir is up to 1.6 and 2.35 times more efficient than a symmetric labyrinth and rectangular side, respectively.
