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.

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.

Book excerpt: Cordell Hull Lock will be 84 ft wide by 450 ft long and will have a normal lift of 59 ft with a maximum lift of 62 ft occurring about 5 percent of the time. Model study (scale 1:25) of the filling and emptying system proposed for this lock was confined to the portion of the hydraulic system between the filling and emptying valves. (Author).
