Abstract
In dam reservoirs, the turbidity current is usually the cause of sediment transfer and deposition. Therefore, it is necessary to study this phenomenon. Here, experiments were made on the effects of the impermeable submerged plates on turbidity current head. In order to investigate the effects of the impermeable submerged plates, some parameters of the plates were changed, such as shape, angle of mounting of the plates with respect to the current axis, location and the dimensions of the plates. The results showed that the flow velocity of the turbidity current decreased by 25 to 27.1% compared to the control state in case of different shapes of plates mounted. The analysis of the position of the plates showed that in different conditions, the flow velocity decreases 45.1% relative to the control state. Various mounting angles also resulted in 8.6 to 27.1% lower velocity relative to the control. Changing the width and height of the plates reduced the head velocity from 21.8 to 43.9% and 10 to 45.2%.
