Book Model Study of Marmet Lock Filling and Emptying System  Kanawha River  West Virginia

Download or read book Model Study of Marmet Lock Filling and Emptying System Kanawha River West Virginia written by and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report documents the laboratory model investigation of the lock filling and emptying system for lock addition planned for the Marmet Navigation Project. This project is located on the Kanawha River in the U.S. Army Engineer District, Huntington. The filling and emptying system consists of an innovative through-the-sill intake and in-chamber longitudinal culverts. This system is less expensive than the conventional side port filling and emptying system. The model results revealed that the flow conditions in the upper approach during filling operations could be improved by lowering the upstream maintenance sill and streamlining the approach to the intakes. The original design filling and emptying system was found to perform satisfactorily for the design lift of 7.315 m (24 ft) and a 4-min valve operation. No excessive surface turbulence occurred in the chamber, and the maximum hawser forces experienced by a three- by four-barge arrangement moored inside the chamber were considered acceptable. No changes were made to the discharge outlet design.

Book Upper Mississippi River Lock Filling and Emptying System  Hydraulic Model Investigation

Download or read book Upper Mississippi River Lock Filling and Emptying System Hydraulic Model Investigation written by and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Navigation improvements including lock extensions are being investigated for several existing projects on the Upper Mississippi River (UMR). A hydraulic model study was conducted to evaluate filling and emptying system design alternatives for the extension of lock No. 22 and lock No. 25. A 1:25 scale model was constructed to determine the range of lock performance for both locks. The filling system flow capacity was not significantly changed from the original non-extended lock design. The filling time for acceptable chamber performance with the 4.57-m (15-ft) lift was 23.1 min. This filling time was achieved with a 23-min valve. The focus of the study was to determine emptying performance for multiple options of emptying gates built in the extended portion of the lock chamber river wall. Several emptying system designs were studied. The type 2 and 3 design provided the best chamber performance during the emptying operation.
