    Side Channel Spillway

    Side channel spillways are overflow structures where the side channel is positioned sideways to the flow control channel upstream. Water that crosses the spillway structure is divided into two levels with two energy absorbers - one at the end of the regulator channel and one at the end of the spillway. The discharge characteristics depend on the weir crest selection, and a maximum of two-thirds submergence can be tolerated at the upstream end of the channel. The slope of the channel profile is generally flat to provide greater depths and lower velocities.

    SIDE CHANNEL SPILLWAY

    SPILLWAY
    Spillway : One of the most important structural component of a
    01 dam

    Spillway evacuates the flood wave from reservoir to river


    02 at the downstream

    For safety, spillways should have sufficient capacity to discharge


    03 floods, likely to occur during the lifetime of the dam.

    Spillway Design Flood (SDF) can be selected using some


    04 prescribed guidelines or from a risk-based analysis.

    05 It is normally composed of three major components

    DEFINITION

    • Side Channel Spillway is an overflow structure where the side


    channel is positioned sideways to the flow control channel on its
    upstream (Sosrodarsono, 1989:190).

    • The flow that crosses the side spillway structure, as if divided into
    two levels with two energy absorbers, namely the first is located at
    the end of the regulator channel called the side channel and the
    second is the energy damper at the end of the spillway.

    • Requirements that need to be considered in this type of overflow


    structure is that the flood discharge that passes through it, does
    not cause the flow to sink the dam (submerged & low) on the
    regulating channel, then the side channel is made quite low against
    the dam.
    COEFFICIENT OF OVERFLOW DISCHARGE

    The Formula used to calculate the overflow discharge is as follow :

    Where :
    Q = Discharge (m3/sec)
    C = Coefficient
    B = Effective width (m)
    H = total water pressure above the overflow crest (m)
    COEFFICIENT OF OVERFLOW DISCHARGE

    The Coefficient run-off in the weir as usually affected :


    1. Water depth in the flow channel
    2. Upstream slope of the weir
    3. Height of the water above the weir
    4. The different between the height of the plan in the flow control
    channel
    (Sosrodarsono, 1989:181)
    COEFFICIENT OF OVERFLOW DISCHARGE

    EFFECTIVE SPILLWAY WIDTH
    When water overflows across an overflow crest, there is a flow control on both the
    overflow and the sidewalls around the pillars built above the overflow crest,

    so that the effective width of an overflow is smaller than the overall width of the actual
    overflow

    and discharge of the water that crosses the displaced spillway is always based on the
    width of the effective, that is from the actual width reduction result with the sum of all
    contraction arising in the flow of water that crosses the spillway
    (Sosrodarsono, 1989:190)

    SIDE CHANNEL SPILLWAYS (1/2)

    • Discharge characteristics of a side channel spillway are similar to those of


    an ordinary overflow spillway and are dependent on the selected of the
    weir crest. However, for maximum discharges the side channel flow may
    differ from that of the overflow spillway in that the flow in the trough may
    be restricted and may partly submerge the flow over the crest.

    • A Maximum of two-thirds submergence at the upstream end of the


    channel can be tolerated, the maximum water surface level in the channel
    will be 2/3H above the crest

    • The slope of the channel profile is arbitrary; however a relatively flat slope
    will provide greater depths and lower velocities and, consequently, will
    ensure better intermingling of flows at the upstream end of the channel
    and avoid the possibility of accelerating or supercritical flows occurring in
    the channel for smaller discharge.

    SIDE CHANNEL SPILLWAYS (2/2)

    For the side channel trough, a


    trapezoidal section with ½:1 side
    slope is usually implemented.
