Conclusions
-
1.
The existing methods of determining the downstream limit depth for which the conjugate depth form with previous overflow is still possible yield large differences with respect to each other.
-
2.
The proposed method is intended for N>1 and takes into account the nonhydrostatic pressure distribution and the actual potential energy depending on H and N.
-
3.
Experimental verification of the proposed method showed satisfactory agreement with the analyses for the entire investigation range.
