ABOUT THE BOOK
HYDRAULICS OF SPILLWAYS AND ENERGY DISSIPATORS
AUTHOR : RAJNIKANT M KHATSURIA
PUBLISHERS : CRC PRESS
The need for a comprehensive book dealing in hydraulics of spillways and energy dissipators has been realized since long. Various topics pertaining to the spillways and energy dissipators are available in the sources devoted mainly to the design of dams, text books on hydraulics and open channel flow and handbooks of hydraulics. However, advances in research and design, generally published through papers presented at the speciality conferences and journals, are seldom disseminated wide enough for application on a general scale. Consequently, the rift between the advancements in knowledge and its formal documentation in the books and treatise grows wider. Of the many examples illustrating this lag, a typical one is the aerator on spillways to mitigate cavitation damage. Although, the beneficial effects of aeration were known in the early fifties, considerable research had been pursued, to understand hydraulics of the phenomenon, from the sixties and aeration devices were installed on the existing structures in the late seventies, it was not until the eighties that aeration devices became an integral part of spillway design. It is noteworthy that no book on spillways published until the late eighties included the topic of aeration, and reference sources remained scattered in journals and proceedings.
The book has been organized into four sections dealing with spillways, energy dissipators, cavitation and air entrainment, and hydraulic modeling. Emphasis has been on discussing first the hydraulics of different types of spillways and energy dissipators and to illustrate its application top ractical design problems. To this end, illustrative examples have been included at appropriate places.
