In this study, the flow in the spillway of Gun-nam flood control reservoir were simulated by using FLOW-3D model. The discharge in the overflow weir and flow stability in approach channel were investigated with the original design plan. The results show that the scale of spillway is unsuitable and the flow in approach channel is unstable. To solve this problem, therefore, the alternative design plan were formulated. The flow in the spillway were simulated with the alternative design plan. The results show that the scale of spillway is suitable and the flow in approach channel is stable.

This study is a preliminary investigation into the development of a construction method that will protect a reservoir even during over flows caused by severe flooding. Through hydraulic modeling tests, the destructive phenomena caused by spillway-junction scour during reservoir overflow were modeled, and the effects on the embankment during such an overflow and the spillway-junction movements are discussed. The reservoir destruction model used the Tanbu reservoir, located in Gangwondo Chuncheon-si Namsanmyeon (H＝22 m, L＝115 m), as the model reservoir and created an embankment with a 1/60 ratio. We review the spillway-junction safety factor during overflow and embankment movement following reinforcement measures for three different cases: no reinforcement, cemented sand and gravel (CSG) reinforcement and water-blocking sheet reinforcement. The results of this study confirmed that when the spillway-junction is exposed to soil, it is very vulnerable to overflow and that a water-blocking sheet or CSG reinforcement are very effective measures in preventing embankment destruction in the long-term period.

In this study, capability of an air slot in a siphon spillway for controlling outflow discharge is investigated through hydraulic experiments. Arc and rectangular shapes of air slot are considered and the open area of air slot can be varied. Complex air-regulated flow occurs inside the the siphon spillway when the air slot is installed on it. The same discharge is measured at the same water level inside the reservoir when the water level rises or falls. Nondimensional discharge through the siphon spillway increases slowly as nondimensional open area of the air slot increases. The hydraulic experiments show that the control of outflow discharge of siphon spillway is possible by controlling the open area of the air slot.

This study analyzed the hydrodynamic flow behavior on a standard ogee spillway with pier by using FLOW-3D. The simulation results were compared with the experiment data of U.S. Army Corps of Engineers - Waterways Experiment Station (WES) and also compared with 2-dimensional simulation results on a spillway without pier. In particular, the characteristics of the distribution of the overflow nappe and pressure in a spillway with pier were investigated in detail. As for the results of the simulation on the flow rate, overflow nappe, and pressure, although there were a few differences in the experiment results of WES, they were identical in most cases in terms of trend. Summarizing the major flow behavior in a standard ogee spillway with pier, first, the water stage at the center line of the bay was higher than that at the side of the bay along the pier. Second, when the water head was larger than the design head of the spillway, at the upstream area of the weir crest, the absolute magnitude of negative pressure occurred highest at the side of the bay along the pier. On the other hand, at the downstream area of the weir crest, the absolute magnitude of negative pressure occurred highest at the centerline of the bay.

In this study, an experiment with large-scale model was performed according to raising the embankment in order to investigate the behavior of failure for embankment and spillway transitional zone due to overtopping. The pore water pressure, earth pressure, settlement and failure pattern by a rapid drawdown and overtopping were compared and analyzed. The pore water pressure and earth pressure at spillway transitional zone by overtopping increased a rapidly with the expansion of seepage erosion, but the crest showed a smally change due to effect of the inclined core type. And it is considered an useful data that can accurately estimate the possibility of failure of the reservoirs. A settlement at overtopping decreased a rapidly due to failure of crest. The relative settlement difference due to change of the water level at the upstream and downstream slope cause increase largely crack of crest. The behavior of failure by overtopping was gradually enlarged towards reservoirs crest from the bottom of the spillway transition zone, the inclined core after the raising the embankment was influenced significantly to prevent the seepage erosion.

This study aims to provide useful information when making a decision for the environmental assessment of infrastructure, based on Life Cycle Assessment(LCA). It estimates environmental load on environmental pollutants that are possible to occur by locations and by types of emergency spillway for Korean multipurpose dam, which is selected as a study case. For this purpose, this study examines the theories of LCA and calculates environmental load on environmental pollutants that generate during life cycle, to apply the suggested infrastructure to the case study of emergency spillway at the multipurpose dam. It also evaluates environmental load of emergency spillway by the estimated result, and draws the optimum alternative that is environmental friendly.

In this study, overflow behaviors through a partially open tainter gate mounted on a standard ogee spillway were investigated by using the FLOW-3D. The results indicated that the discharge coefficient is in the range of 0.685 to 0.723. A relation of gate-controlled discharge to free discharge was proposed and a reasonable correlation between the free and controlled discharge was obtained. Pressures on the spillway crest and the gate were also investigated. As the gate opening rate decreases with a fixed gate opening height and the gate opening height increases at a fixed gate opening rate, negative pressures on the spillway crest and the dimensionless maximum pressures on the gate increase.

Sediment yields from the reservoir watershed areas and raising of the spillway crest for the agricultural reservoir capacity enlargement were investigated and analysed through the 21 pilot reservoirs, have irrigated areas 200has. and over in the Kyoungpook province. In these studies, (1), the correlation analysis between various watershed characteristics and annual specific sediment yields were derived and (2), the excess effective reservoir capacity of the over 0.5m above the spillway crest could be estimated. In brief, catchment area should strongly be correlated with the annual specific sediment yields (R=0.90), the other side, average slope of the main stream is less than catchment area. The excess effective capacity of reservoir enlargement by the raising of spillway crest at 0.5m-height was resulted 12.1% of increasing capacity compare with the original reservoir capacity.

Because it is difficult to install new large hydraulic structure, washland is considered as alternatives of hydraulic facility. As flood reduction effect of washland is dependent on flood, hydrograph, capacity of washland and spillway height, applying adequate spillway height is very important to maximize flood reduction effect of washland. In this study, effect of variation of spillway height on flood reduction effect of washlands is analyzed. The existing model developed to make decision for optimal location of washland using flood reduction effect as evaluation function and location of washland as decision variable was revised for this purpose. The spillway height of washland is added as decision variable and revised model finally give optimal location and spillway height of washland as result. The developed model has been applied to the Ansung River basin and application result was compared with that of existing model. The application result shows that developed model can give more efficient result than existing model.
