Abstract

PARDO GOMEZ, Rafael. Energy dissipation- part II: stilling basin. riha [online]. 2018, vol.39, n.3, pp. 119-133. ISSN 1680-0338.

The present article is the second of a series of seven, all relative to energy dissipators that can be used in hydraulic works. The whole group of these articles conform a monograph about the subject that is being prepared by the author, concluding it by the middle of the 2017 year and later on incorporating it into a new edition - in preparation - of the textbook "Spillways and Intake Structures." This second article is a detailed presentation about two structures of energy dissipation that have a wide universal use.

Keywords : chute blocks; baffle piers; stilling basin; stilling basin/pool length; stilling pool; hydraulic jump; terminal threshold.
