Title Low-Head Dam Reverse Roller Remediation Options
Creator Olsen, Riley J. Johnson, Michael C. Barfuss, Steve L.
Description The writers examine possible remediation options to mitigate the dangers found at low-head dams, using computational fluid dynamics and physical model tests. The objective was to identify an option that could be relatively simple to implement, would reduce the strength, or eliminate the dangerous reverse roller found downstream of low-head dams. Two promising options were identified, consisting of (1) ramps spaced along the channel width, or (2) horizontal platforms protruding from the...
