{"product_id":"9781138027558","title":"Energy Dissipation in Hydraulic Structures (Iahr Monographs)","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn hydraulic engineering numerous devices like stilling basins, baffled aprons, and vortex shafts are known under the collective term of energy dissipators. Their purpose is to dissipate hydraulic energy, i.e. to convert this energy mainly into heat. Dissipators are used in places where the excess hydraulic energy could cause damage such as erosion of tailwater channels, abrasion of hydraulic structures, generation of tailwater waves or scouring. Energy dissipators are an important element of hydraulic structures as transition between the highly explosive high velocity flow and the sensitive tailwater. \u003cbr\u003eThis volume examines energy dissipators mainly in connection with dam structures and provides a review of design methods. It includes topics such as hydraulic jump, stilling basins, ski jumps and plunge pools. It also introduces a general account of various methods of dissipation, as well as the governing flow mechanisms. \u003cbr\u003eThe book will be of interest to Civil and Environmental Engineers, Hydraulic and Mechanical Engineers working in academic and professional environments.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CRC Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49035506254059,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":347.9,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9781138027558-1.jpg?v=1785755248","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/ja\/products\/9781138027558","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
