    This document contains calculations for modeling the flow characteristics of an emergency spillway for the Clinton Regional Dam. It provides design parameters for the spillway including dimensions, roughness coefficient, and invert elevation. It then shows modeling results including flow depth, area, velocity, discharge, head over the spillway, and flow rate for a range of water surface elevations. Equations used in the modeling are also listed. A graph of the spillway flow curve is presented relating flow rate to water surface elevation.

    CRITICAL FLOW EQUATIONS*


    (1) Qc = SQRT(gA3/T),

    (5) Hec = Yc + Vc/2g,

    (8) Sc = 14.56nA/(R1.33)T,

    (2) Ac = (b + ZYc)Yc,

    (6) Hp = Hec(1 + aL),

    (9) R = (b + ZYc)Yc/(b + 2YcSQRT(1 + Z))

    (3) Vc = SQRT(gA/T),

    (7) a = (4.32n)/Hec1.33,

    (4) T = b + 2ZYc
    * The Critical Flow Equations were obtained from SCS TR-2 dated 1956 and the Handbook of Hydraulics (Brater & King, 6 ed., page 8-16).
