Effects of weir geometry on scour development in the downstream of Piano Key Weirs
Scouring in the downstream of all weirs, including Piano Key Weirs (PKWs), can have major safety implications. Since the research on downstream scouring of PKWs is very limited, and the weir geometry is also known to have an impact on downstream scouring, this study investigated scouring in the down...

Scouring in the downstream of all weirs, including Piano Key Weirs (PKWs), can have major safety implications. Since the research on downstream scouring of PKWs is very limited, and the weir geometry is also known to have an impact on downstream scouring, this study investigated scouring in the downstream of PKWs with rectangular and trapezoidal geometries and two different heights. The scour hole measurements showed that in both rectangular and trapezoidal models, scour hole parameters increased both with the increase in discharge rate and the increase in weir height. Under similar discharge conditions, the scour depth downstream from the rectangular model was greater than that downstream from the trapezoidal model. The dimensionless maximum scour depth, the distance of maximum scour depth from the weir toe, and the scour hole length for the trapezoidal PKW were, on average, 6, 13, and 11% lower than the corresponding ones for the rectangular PKW, respectively. However, these differences decreased with the increase in falling height. For both weir geometries, the maximum scour depth was aligned with the outlet keys. In addition, the maximum scour depth under the outlet keys was 13% greater than the one under the inlet keys. |
