The invention discloses a
jet flow and drop flow energy dissipation structure for overflowing of a
shore-side flood protection gap of a
gravity dam. A
shore-side gap is arranged in a dam section close to a river
bank at one side; a
plunge pool is arranged downstream the
shore-side gap; one side of the
plunge pool is a
bank slope; a shore-side platform is arranged at the top of the
bank slope; a shore-side guide wall is arranged on the shore-side platform and is connected with the
tail end of the shore-side gap; the shore-side platform is connected with the
plunge pool via the bank slope; separating piers are arranged at the other side of the shore-side gap opposite to the shore-side guide wall and are used for preventing
water flow in the gap from being turned over outwards. The
radius of the shore-side guide wall is 4H to 6H; the length of the shore-side guide wall is 2H to 4H; the height of the shore-side guide wall is larger than 0.4H; the included angle of the
tail end of the guide wall and the bank slope is 5 to 15 degrees; the gradient of the bank slope is larger than 1:0.3; the
water depth of the plunge
pool is larger than 0.2
Delta Z; H represents the difference of the highest flood protection
water level and the bottom elevation of the gap;
Delta Z represents a designed difference of the upstream
water level and the downstream
water level. The bank slope is provided with no packway. The
jet flow and drop flow energy dissipation structure is good in energy dissipation effect, good in
water flow condition, free of phenomenon of deflected
water flow, and free of phenomenon of concentrated
impact. The main flow does not wash against the bank slope, and the shore-side flow speed is small. The
jet flow and drop flow energy dissipation structure is manufactured from conventional concrete, so the manufacturing cost is low.
