Abstract

Hydraulic modelling of the canoe track on the Sava River near Zagreb G. Gjetvaf and K. Plantic^ "Faculty of Civil Engineering, University of Zagreb, Kaciceva 26, 10 000 Zagreb, Croatia Email: Goran@master.grad.hr * Energy Institute Ltd. Ulicagrada Vukovara 37, Email: Kresimir.Plantic@public.srce.hr Abstract To establish hydraulic parameters required for the designing canoe track on the Sava river near Zagreb two hydraulic models: physical and numerical, have been worked out. Models resulted in a consumption curve of the movable (rubber) weir which regulates flow in the track and distribution of water speeds (velocities) and depths along the track at characteristic discharges. During the research on physical model, number and position of segmental gates placed on the track were being changed. As a result of this research the velocities distribution and depths along the track have bean defined, and minimum discharge enabling track use was recommended. This paper pres
