Energy Dissipators in Hydraulic Structures

Energy dissipators are an important element of hydraulic structures as transition between the highly explosive high velocity flow and the sensitive tailwater.

This volume examines energy dissipators mainly in connection with dam structures and provides a review of design methods.

It includes topics such as hydraulic jump, stilling basins, ski jumps and plunge pools.

It also introduces a general account of various methods of dissipation, as well as the governing flow mechanisms.
