The GUNT HM 163.32 Ogee-Crested Weir with Two Weir Outlets is a fixed control structure used to regulate flow. As water flows over the ogee-crested weir, a transition to supercritical discharge occurs, resulting in high flow energy downstream. To prevent potential damage, energy dissipation is necessary, for example using a chute with a ski jump or a stilling basin.
