Prediction of dissolved oxygen on stepped spillway with different configuration
Very Dermawan1, Djoko Legono2, Denik Sri Krisnayanti3.
The increase of water quality is related to the presence of dissolved oxygen. Even,
the oxygen concentration in surface waters is a main indicator of the water
quality for human use as well as for the aquatic biota. Air entrainment on stepped
spillway is also recognised for its contribution to the oxygen transfer. The oxygen
transfer on stepped spillways in skimming flow regime is increased due to earlier
self-aeration and slower flow velocities in comparison to smooth spillways. This
paper presents the results gained on a physical model by using a variety of
different configurations of stepped spillway. The slopes of stepped spillway (θ)
used are 30Ëš and 45Ëš, the number of step (N) are 40 and 20, and two types of
steps are flat steps and pooled steps. The experiments were conducted for ten
Froude number (Fr) run ranging from 1.117 to 9.909. This research aimed to
investigate the influence of different configuration in stepped spillway for
predicting of dissolved oxygen. The results showed that the dissolved oxygen of
the stepped spillway increases with an increase in chute of slope, number of step,
and surface roughness on steps. The increases of Froude number as a function of
discharge will cause turbulence flow becomes decreases, and the concentration
of air bubble in the water will be decreased. The decreased value of turbulence
flow will make dissolved oxygen level decrease. In skimming flow condition, the
dissolved oxygen level decreases with increasing discharge per unit width
especially for steep bed slope.
