Abstract

Simple geometry used in water software and hydride sign works was failed here. Comprehensive real data with complex irregular geometries were incorporated provided for wider application and feasible solutions. A realistic and more practical approach was tested, found reliable and compatible with water engineering principles considered for calculation of volumetric water rates by three types of Ogee shapes. Results indicated proximity between numerical and experimental data accurately predicted based on developed practical codes. Geometrical characteristics had impact on optimized height, and volume of water behind the dam affected the hydraulic variables. The most common overflow hydraulic structure was analyzed for optimal safety in operation and maintenance. Sensitivity analysis was made to secure reliable geometry for construction and maintenance of the dam provided with optimum design of hydraulic parameters and the hydraulic system. The developed scheme responded well based on computational, geometrical and hydraulics of variables for three types of spillways. Results were compared through experimental observations and measurements verified the superiority of developed approach and new performances. The enhanced modeling considered multi-variable objective functions for best fitting nonlinear variables in complicated hydro-environmental system.
