FLOW MEASUREMENT AND INSTRUMENTATION, cilt.38, ss.82-91, 2014 (SCI-Expanded)
This study is related to flow measurement structures of asymmetric compound cross section mostly suggested for sediment laden-rivers, streams and wadis. Nine different models of asymmetrical rectangular cross sections were tested for a wide range of discharges. In each model, the stages and corresponding discharges were measured. From these measurements, the average discharges utilizing the Phi-indices Approach were determined. In addition, a multivariable regression model was derived with high accuracy for the prediction of discharge in asymmetric compound channels using five dimensionless parameters.
