Spillway Flow Optimization

This document contains hydraulic design calculations for optimizing intake flow at a flood control facility. It includes parameters like flood discharge, weir dimensions, intake opening specifications, gate details, and spillway characteristics. Calculations are shown for determining the head and water level required for the desired discharge capacity from the intake and spillway. The analysis finds that a water level of 1158.62 meters at the river would provide the targeted 4.88 cubic meters per second flow from the intake orifice.
