Abstract
The velocity field in a reservoir in the presence of surface vortices was experimentally studied. Experiments were performed with a horizontal intake and with a constant submerged depth and two different intake Froude numbers. The spline smoothing method was used to improve the graphical presentation of the measured data. Results are presented and compared in different horizontal sections in the reservoir. A downward conical flow over the intake axis and an upward one below the intake axis were observed in the reservoir. Finally, the prevailing domains of vertical and horizontal velocities were determined.
