Abstract

In this study highlights the possibility of increasing the discharge of side channel using inclined side weir with different crest height upstream of flow, five models were used and flow profile were studied along the side weir. Devised an equation to calculate the coefficient of discharge for the rectangular sharp crested weir, and used for calculated the discharge passing over the side weir for all cases of inclined side weir and compare it with the laboratorymeasured data. The laboratory data proved the correct of theoretical equation and observed to increase the discharge of the inclined weir by (40%) compared to standard horizontal weir.
