INTRODUCTIONA structure constructed to discharge the
surplus water from a reservoir into the river, on the downstream side without endangering the safety of dam is known as SPILLWAY.
It is also known as Waste Weir or Surplusing Structures
Thus spillway essentially acts as safety valve of dam.
Component parts of spillwayApproach Channel
Control Structure
Energy Dissipater
Tail Channel
APPROACH CHANNELCarry water from the
reservoir to the control structure.
It may be shallow or deep, depending upon the topography.
The width of the approach channel should be adequate to have uniform distribution of water.
The approach should be at right angle to the spillway weir for a sufficient length
CONTROL STRUCTUREthe major component of a spillway as it
regulates and controls the discharge.It generally consists of an ogee weir with or
without gates. the gates can also be operated manually or
electricalyA road bridge is also designed over the weir
supported by piers and abutments.
ENERGY DISSIPATOREnergy dissipation arrangement at the toe
of the dam weir is indirectly a must.The type of the energy dissipation
arrangement depends upon1. The discharge,2. The geological conditions at the site,3. The magnitude of the energy to be
dissipated,4. Tail water rating curve
THE TAIL CHANNELThe tail channel conveys the flood discharge from
the energy dissipater to the main river channel.
The tail channel design should be such that there is neither silting nor scouring.
The tail channel is required to be kept straight for some distance so that the performance of the energy dissipater will be satisfactory.
The junction of the tail channel with the main river should not be at right angles and should be at as small angle as possible.

SIPHON SPILLWAYclosed conduit in a shape
of inverted U tube.Advantages – It can discharge with full
capacity.The operation is
automatic. It has no moving parts or
mechanical devices,
SIPHON SPILLWAY
Disadvantages – It cannot pass ice or
debris.possibility of clogging the
siphon conduit.water freezes, siphon
action will not start.Energy dissipation
arrangement is difficult to design.
CONDUIT SPILLWAY

no symphonic action.

Hydraulic Design of SpillwayCase Study Upper Wardha Project

Amravati.3. Catchment Area –4302 Sq.Km
Hydrology of SpillwayMaximum Flood DischargeThe maximum flood discharge may be estimated
by 1. Using available data2. Unit hydrograph method3. Empirical formula4. Envelope curveIn our case we calculated by,Inglis Formula,

Location of SpillwayThe spillway may be located –In the gorge portionOn either of the flanks In a saddle.
In our case,Good rock in the river portion was available at
61.00 m i.e. 6.00 m from the river bed levelIn view of this the spillway was proposed to be
located in the gorge portion.
Control StructureThe control structure will be an ogee type weir. The profile of ogee weir will be according to
USWES profile, Xn = K Hd
n-1 yWhere, x = Co-ordinates in x direction.
K = constant. Hd = Design head. n = constant
Design Head Hd =HFL-Crest Level =(108-100) =8 m
The values of n and K can be calculated by following table
As the spillway located in gorge portion Upstream face is Vertical therefore,
n=1.85 & K=2.00

Upstream ProfileThe Upstream Profile is designed as per
recommendations of USWES a = 0.175 Hd = 1.40 mb = 0.282 Hd = 2.256 mr1 = 0.5 Hd = 4.00 m.r2 = 0.2 Hd = 1.60 m .

downstream slope of the weir is restricted to 0.8 horizontal to 1.0 vertical.

Radial GatesThe number and size of the gates is finalized to suit
theWidth of river.The flood discharge.The storage between the gates. The U.S.B.R. recommendations regarding the radial
gates as followsThe ratio of width to height of the radial gate be
as far as possible 2:3The radial should rest on the weir at a point 0.5 m
to 1m lower than the crest of the weir.
Radial Gates
The radius of the skin plate be equal to 1.25(Hd – 1) R=1.25(Hd -1) =1.25(8-1) =8.75mHeight of trunion axis above the sill beam level be
3/4 to 1.2 (Hd -1) =.75 Hd to 0.5(Hd -1) =6 to 3.5mTrunion axis level=5.00m below crest level
Sill Beam Level= 1.00m below crest level
ENERGY DISSIPATING ARRANGEMENTMethods adopted are as follows –
1. Hydraulic jump type stilling basin.2. Bucket type energy dissipation. 3. Flip or ski-jump bucket
4. Interacting jet, splitter etcAs the rock at the down-stream side of the dam was
available at about 6 meters below the ground, the last two alternatives, viz.
Flip or ski-jump bucket.Interacting jet, splitter etc.Have been discarded
Hence we will design the tail channel with ‘Hydraulic jump type stilling basin’
TAIL WATER RATING CURVEDeveloped on one cross section at the dam
site.Coefficient of rugosity was assumed equal to

ConclusionFor the Upper Wardha Project the design of spillway withslight modifying the data was carried out as perrecommendations of USWES and USBR for stilling basinAn ogee shaped gated spillway was designed to pass flooddischarge of 3100 cumecs. Also 6 radial gates were designed control the flood discharge. For energy dissipation purposethe hydraulic jump curve and tail water rating curve arestudied.Due to tail water deficiency, to match the hydraulic jumpcurve and tail water rating curve, the stilling basin wasdepressed.
