L is the length of weir
H is the head over the weir crest
and t
his the coefficient of discharge
The head H above the crest should be measured on the upstream of the
weir at a distance of 4 to 5 times the maximum head above the crest.
Some of these formulae which are commonly used are described

13. (b.1) Triangular weir
Ventilation of a triangular weir is not necessary.
For measuring low discharge a triangular weir is very useful.
The nappeemerging from a triangular weir has the same shape
for all heads.

29. (a) Free falling weir:
A weir is said to be a free falling weir if downstream liquid level
is below the weir crest.

30. (b) Submerged Weir:
If the downstream liquid level is above the crest level of the
weir the nappeis submerged and the weir is classified as
submerged weir.

34. The weirs, in which the discharge is proportional to head, are known as proportional
weirs.
Q∝l

(a) Linear Proportional weirs or SUTRO weir
This linear proportional weir was invented by Stout (1897) and modified
later buSutro(Pratt, 1914 ). Sutroreplaced the infinite wings of the Stout
weir by a rectangular base weir based on graphical methods. Detailed
experiment were conducted on it by Soucek, Mavis, and Howe (1936). This
modified weir, ternedthe SutroWeir, achieves a linear discharge-head
relation given by

36. (b) Quadratic Weir
The quadratic weir with an infinite width at the water surface was
first obtained by Haszpra(1965). However, a practical weir with a
finite width designed by KeshavaMurthy (1969) achieves a
discharge-head relation given by

Murthy (1966) to achieve a discharge-head relation given by
Q=b ln(1+

/5
)
The weir width become zero at a certain height for a given base
weir and then reaches a negative value.

39. Banks et al. (1968) designed a type of weirs which may be
termed exponential weirs to differentiate them from the
logarithmic weirs. The exponential weirs achieve a discharge-
head relation given by
Q=K
a/P

40. Two new type of weirs termed as new baseless weirs (designed
as NBW-1 and NBW-2) have been designed by LakshmanaRao
and Chandrasekaran(1970a,1971) to achieve the discharge-head
relation given by
Q(NBW-1)=Khln(1+h/T) and
Q(NBW-2)=Kℎ

ln(1+h/T)
In which T is a arbitrary dimensional parameter

42. Based on alignment it may be Normal weir ,Side weir and
Oblique weirs.
(a) Normal Weir:

45. (a) Flat-Veeweir.
Flat veeweir are suitable for measuring accurately a wide range of
flows, relatively easy to install, and are economical. Such weir are
designed by modifying slightly the Crump weir.

46. To estimate the regime characteristics of a river in relation to
watershed protection and flood prevention measures. A veeWeir
with a very large apex angle and with very little crest width is
installed with weir crest slightly above the channel bed. Figure
shows the details of a Large veeweir.

48. A labyrinth weir is a linear weir that is folded in plan-view to
increase the crest length for a given channel or spillway width.
Due to the increase in crest length, a labyrinth weir provides an
increase in discharge capacity for a given upstream driving head
relative to traditional linear weir structures. Labyrinth weirs are
particularly well suited for spillway rehabilitation where dam
safety concerns freeboard limitations, and a revised and larger
probable maximum flow have required replacement or
modification of the spillway

50. The Piano Key Weir (PKW) is a particular geometry of weir
associating to a labyrinth shape the use of overhangs to reduce
the basis length. The PKW could thus be directly placed on a
dam crest. Together with its important discharge capacity for
low heads, this geometric feature makes the PKW an interesting
solution for dam rehabilitation. However, its hydraulic design
remains problematic, even at a preliminary stage.
