Abstract:Establishing a 1:30 physical scale model,we observe the filling & emptying system’s hydraulic characteristics and berthing conditions in chamber of Mengzhouba second-lane lock.The result proves the reasonability of adopting the overall layout form of sidewall long gallery & branch hole dispersion system in Mengzhouba second-lane lock,and the hydraulic characteristics under the recommended valve opening mode satisfy the requirements of the design and related codes.
