GUNT HM 161.31 Broad-Crested Weir

The GUNT Broad-Crested Weir (HM 161.31) is a control structure for the HM 161 experimental flume, designed to study the flow over broad-crested weirs. It allows demonstration of both free and submerged overfall conditions in open channel flow experiments.

Product Features

  • Broad-crested weir for HM 161 experimental flume
  • Cuboid-shaped weir body with sharp edges
  • Two additional elements can be added to create rounded edges
  • Demonstrates free and submerged overfall
  • Effect of sharp-edged or rounded weir crest on nappe is observable
  • Durable construction for repeated laboratory use

Benefits

  • Enables observation of hydraulic behavior over broad-crested weirs
  • Supports comparison of sharp-edged versus rounded weir crests
  • Allows experimentation with free and submerged flow conditions
  • Enhances understanding of open channel flow hydraulics

Why Choose GUNT Broad-Crested Weir?

The GUNT HM 161.31 Broad-Crested Weir provides a versatile solution for studying flow behavior over broad-crested weirs, supporting detailed hydraulic experiments and education.
