21、vity.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 In broad-crested weirs, the length of the horizontal crestin the direction of flow is large enough relative to the upstreamhead for essentially rectilinear critical flow to occur at somepoint along the crest. This ideally permits the flow rate to beobtained from a s

22、ingle measurement of the upstream head; acorrective coefficient must be applied in practice. This coeffi-cient has been evaluated experimentally for square-edge weirsand can be determined analytically for rounded weirs.5. Significance and Use5.1 Broad-crested weirs can be used for accurate measure-m

23、ents of a wide range of flow rates, but their structuralsimplicity and sturdiness make them particularly useful formeasuring large flows under field conditions.5.2 Because they require vertical sidewalls, broad-crestedweirs are particularly adaptable to rectangular artificial chan-nels or to natural

24、 and artificial channels that can readily belined with vertical sidewalls in the immediate vicinity of theweir.6. Interferences6.1 Broad-crested weirs are not suitable for use in sediment-laden streams that are carrying heavy bed loads. However,floating debris is readily passed, particularly by the

25、roundedweir (see 7.2.1).6.2 Broad-crested weirs cannot be used beyond submer-gence limits because insufficient data exist to document theirperformance. It is therefore necessary to adhere to thetailwater-level limitations described in this test method.7. Apparatus7.1 A broad-crested weir measuring s

26、ystem consists of theweir itself and its immediate channel (the primary) and a headmeasuring device (the secondary). The secondary device canrange from a simple staff gage for visual readings to aninstrument that senses the depth continuously, converts it to aflow rate, and displays or transmits a r

27、eadout or record of theinstantaneous flow rate or totalized flow, or both.7.2 Square-Edge (Rectangular) Broad-Crested Weir:7.2.1 ConfigurationThe square-edge broad-crested weiras shown in Fig. 1 is rectangular in longitudinal profile andprovides a plane horizontal crest that has finite length in the

28、direction of flow and extends the full width of the channelbetween vertical sidewalls. A contracted section must beconstructed as shown (see also 7.4.1.2) if the channel does nothave vertical sidewalls or is wider than the desired crest. Thevertical sidewalls must extend downstream of the downstream

29、face of the weir a distance of at least twice the maximum head.Recommended limits on dimensions and geometric ratios aregiven in 7.2.5. The upstream and downstream faces must bevertical and perpendicular to the channel surfaces, and it isimportant that the upstream corner be square and sharp.NOTE 1H

30、igh flow rates combined with floating debris may damagethe sharp edge; rounded-edge weirs should be considered for suchapplications.7.2.2 Construction Requirements:7.2.2.1 The structure must be sturdy enough to withstandthe maximum flow rate and must be watertight so that nomeasurable leakage can by

31、pass it.7.2.2.2 FinishLarge weirs constructed in the field shouldhave a finish equivalent to that of smooth concrete. Smallerweirs, such as those in a laboratory environment, should havea smoothness equivalent to that of rolled sheet metal.7.2.2.3 LevelThe crest must not deviate from a level planeby

37、9.(2) The discharge coefficient for h/L#0.3 is constant at0.850, provided that h/P 0.4, the weir is nolonger truly broad crested in accordance with 4.1, since theflow over the crest is curvilinear throughout.)7.2.5 Limiting ConditionsThe flow conditions and dimen-sions of the square-edge weir are su

39、 heads that may be difficult to measure accu-rately. The minimum h/L prevents frictional effects fromcausing the point of critical flow to shift away from theupstream end of the crest. The limitation on maximum h/P isintended to reduce the likelihood of upstream disturbances, andthe remaining limita

40、tions are recommended mainly to conformto the experiments from which the coefficients were obtained.Limiting values of tailwater depth to avoid submergence aregiven in 7.4.2.2.7.3 Rounded Broad-Crested Weir:7.3.1 Configuration:FIG. 1 Square-Edge Broad-Crested WeirD 5614 94 (2003)37.3.1.1 The rounded

41、 broad-crested weir is shown in Fig. 3.As in the square-edge weir, a plane level crest of finitestreamwise length extends over the full channel width betweenvertical sidewalls. If the channel is not rectangular or ofsuitable width, construct a contracted section as shown. Theupstream face must be ve

42、rtical and perpendicular to thechannel surfaces. However, the following geometric featuresdepart from those of the square-edge weir.7.3.1.2 To prevent separation round the upstream corner toa radius of at least 0.2 Hmax, where Hmaxis the anticipatedmaximum upstream total head.NOTE 2Sources customari

Users can place them in terms of measured head,h, by using (Eq 2) and Table 1.IfH/P is limited to a maximum of 1.5 asrecommended in 7.3.5, H/h will not exceed approximately 1.06.7.3.1.3 The length of the horizontal part of the crest must b

44、eat least 1.75 Hmax, and the total length (including radius) mustbe at least 2.25 Hmax.7.3.1.4 The downstream face of the rounded weir can besloped rather than vertical; the only effect is on the tailwaterdepth necessary to avoid submergence (see 7.4.2.3).7.3.2 Construction Requirements:7.3.2.1 The

45、watertightness and finish requirements for therounded weir are the same as those for the square-edge weirgiven in 7.2.2.1 and 7.2.2.2.7.3.2.2 LevelThe crest of the rounded weir must be levelwithin the slope of 0.001.7.3.3 Head Measurement LocationMeasure the head at adistance of 3 H to 4 Hmaxupstrea
