Effects of Tunnel Dam Gate Lip Geometries on Downpull Force Coefficients

Vertical lift tunnel type gates are subjected to hydrostatic and hydrodynamics forces created due to the operation conditions over a large variety of gate openings, flowrates and heads. The impact of the flow over and beneath the gate caused generation of two forces, downward force on the gate withi...
