OLD RIVER LOW-SILL CONTROL STRUCTURE: DYNAMIC HYDRAULIC
FORCES ACTING ON THE STILLING BASIN, SURVEY BOAT
SAFETY, AND DEBRIS PASSAGE
Hydraulic Model Investigation
PART I: INTRODUCTION
The Prototype
1. The Old River Low-Sill Control Structure (Figure 1) is located on
the west bank of the Mississippi River approximately 50 miles* northwest of
Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and approximately 35 miles southwest of Natchez,
Mississippi. The low-sill control structure consists of a reinforced concrete
spillway with vertical-lift gates and stilling basin, an inflow channel from
the Mississippi River, and an outflow channel to the Atchafalaya River and
Basin.
2. The structure has a spillway length of 566 ft between abutments and %k
consists of eleven 44-ft-wide gate bays, Nos. 1-11 from right to left looking
downstream, separated by piers. The three center bays (low gate bays) have a
crest elevation of -5.0;** and the eight outer bays (high gate bays), four
bays on each side of the center section, have a crest elevation of +10.0
(Plates 1 and 2). The gate bays are fitted with multileaf, vertical-lift
gates operated by an overhead gantry crane.
3. The stilling basin consists of three divided sections, each with a
horizontal apron that is surmounted with two rows of staggered 10-ft-high
baffle piers spaced 12 ft apart and terminated with a 3-ft-high vertical end
sill. The center section, located downstream of the low gate bays, is 150 ft
wide and has an apron elevation of -12.0. The two outer sections, downstream
of the high gate bays, are 221 ft wide and have an apron elevation of -5.0.
Rehabilitation of the stilling basin apron downstream from the high and low
bays was essential to repair the eroded concrete on the apron between the

baffles and end sill. Rehabilitation will be provided by overlaying the por-
tion of the apron between the baffles and end sill with modules constructed of
steel with grout pumped underneath.
Purpose of Model Study
4. The primary purpose of the model study was to develop guidance for
rehabilitation of the existing stilling basin. This was accomplished by con-
ducting model tests to determine the hydrodynamic forces acting on proposed
modules located immediately upstream from the end sill, the spoiler design
that minimizes the uplift forces acting on the modules, and the sliding and
uplift hydraulic forces, with and without the spoilers, acting on the stilling
basin. Tests were also conducted to develop guidance relative to the safety
of survey boats operating in the approach to the structure during control
flows and to determine the temporary gate openings necessary to pass drift
under the gates.

PART II: MODELS
Description
5. Two section models were constructed to a scale of 1:36; each model
contained an instrumented section designed to permit the measurement of the Umagnitude and frequency of hydraulic forces for various flow conditions. The
instrumented sections were constructed of machined aluminum, and adequate %
clearance between the instrumented section and adjacent portions of the model
was provided to eliminate excessive friction and damping. Tests were con- %
ducted with and without the models submerged to ensure that the frequency or
damping of the systems would not influence measurement of the dynamic forces.
Uplift forces acting on the modules
6. A section model used to investigate the hydrodynamic forces acting
on the modules downstream from the low bays consisted of one bay, two piers, 0
and 30 percent of each adjacent bay (Figure 2). The model simulated about a
900-ft length of the approach, 800-ft length of the exit channel, and a chan- .
nel width of 88 ft. Provisions were made for installation of flow spoilers to
study their effects on uplift forces on the module. Construction photographs
of the instrumented section are shown in Figure 3.
7. The high bay portion of the structure was simulated to investigate
forces on the module located downstream from the high bays. kSliding and uplift forces
acting on the stilling basin
8. A section model to investigate the sliding and uplift forces acting
on the stilling basin downstream from the low bay portion of the structure re-
produced a wid'h of 173 ft. The model included approximately 1,100 ft of the
approach, three 44-ft-wide gate bays, three gate piers, 38.8 percent of one N
high bay, and about 2,000 ft of exit channel. The section model including the
machined aluminum instrumented section is shown in Figure 4. Figure 5 shows
the instrumented portion of the section model prior to insertion in the model. S
9. The 173-ft-wide section model also was used to investigate the
forces acting on the stilling basin in the high bay portion (Figure 6) of the
structure and to investigate debris passage and survey boat safety.

along the sides of the flumes provided reference planes for measuring devices.
Water-surface elevations were measured by means of point gages.
11. A transparent window was installed in the side of each model to
permit visual observations and photographs of various flow conditions.
Interpretation of Model Results
12. The accepted equations of hydraulic similitude, based on the
Froudian criteria, were used to express the mathematical relations between the
dimensions and hydraulic quantities of the model and the prototype. The gen-
eral relations expressed in terms of the model's scale or length ratio Lr
are expressed in the tabulation below:

PART III: TEST AND RESULTS
Presentation of Data
14. The magnitudes of the forces presented within this report represent
only the dynamic hydraulic loads acting on the structures and are not influ-
enced by a preload or submerged weight of the structure.
Uplift Forces Acting on the Modules
Low bays S
15. Tests were conducted with the low bays simulated to investigate the ('V
dynamic forces acting vertically per foot of width on the upstream portion of
the modules with and without various flow spoilers located at the upstream anddownstream end of the second row of baffles.
16. The instrumented module was supported by a pin connection at the
downstream end and a load cell at the upstream end as shown in Figure 7. The
effect of spoilers with heights of 1, 2, and 3 ft located at the upstream and
downstream end of the second row of baffles (Figure 7) was investigated. The
dynamic forces acting on the upstream end of the module were detected by the
load cell (Figure 7) and recorded on an oscillograph chart. A typical oscil-
lograph record is shown in Figure 8. Analysis of the oscillograph records
indicated that the forces occurred at a random frequency. The load cell was 5
zeroed when the module was submerged with no flow as reflected by the zero
datum shown in Figure 8. The average value of the forces acting on a unit
width of the module is termed FA and the maximum instantaneous force per
foot of width is termed F .
17. Forces measured (per foot of module width) for 12 hydraulic condi-
tions and various heights and locations of spoilers are tabulated in Table 1. IPhotographs of the 12 hydraulic conditions are shown in Photos 1-12. The
maximum unit uplift forces are plotted versus unit discharge in Plate 3. The
legend in Plate 3 relates the test curve to the basic data shown in Table 1.
The plot indicates that the 1-ft-high spoiler located at the downstream end of Ithe second row of baffles (Figure 9) provides the minimum amount of the uplift
per foot of module width.

the dynamic forces acting vertically (per foot of width) on the upstream end r
of the modules. Tests conducted with no spoilers and with 1-ft-high spoilers
located at the downstream end of the second row of baffles showed reducedamounts of uplift on the module (Plate 4). Maximum and average forces per

1-ft-high spoilers are presented in Table 2. A comparison (Plates 3 and 4) of
the spoiler test results obtained with the low and high bays Indicates that k'.for given headwater and tailwater elevations the uplift forces on the modules -
downstream from the low bays are larger than those acting on the modules down-
stream from the high gate bays. This is attributed to the relatively greater
depth and unit discharge of flow through the low gate bays.

Sliding and Uplift Hydraulic Forces Actingon the Stilling Basin
Low bays
19. Tests were conducted to investigate the vertical and horizontal
dynamic forces acting (per foot of width) on the low bay portion of the still-
ing basin with no spoilers and with the 1-ft-high spoiler located at the down-
stream end of the baffles (best spoiler design).
20. Details of the 3.5-bay section model with the instrumented section
is shown in Figure 10. The instrumented section (Figure 10) was designed to
permit measurement of the magnitude, location, and direction of the resultant
hydraulic forces acting on the stilling basin for various hydraulic condi-
tions. To measure the vertical uplift FV , the stilling basin was supported
in the horizontal direction by ball bushings (Figure 10), and vertical forces
were measured by strain Gages C and D (Figure 10). To measure the horizontal
forces F H , the stilling basin was supported in the vertical direction by
roller bearings (Figure 10), and the horizontal forces were measured by strain
Gages A and B (Figure 10).

magnitude of the resultant force FR was obtained by the following equation:
17
-
FR = Fv + F1R V H 'l0
The moment was obtained by supporting the stilling basin by strain Gages C and
D and the pin. The moment about the pin is equal to the magnitude of the
force measured by strain gages (C and D) times the distance from the pin to
the strain gages (61 ft). The location I of FR was obtained by dividing
the moment about the pin by FV . The angle 0 to establish the direction of
the resultant force was obtained by the following equation:
Fv
tan 0 - (2)F H
Dynamic forces detected by the strain gages were recorded on an oscillograph
chart as indicated by the typical oscillograph record shown in Figure 11. The
strain gages were zeroed when the stilling basin was submerged with no flow as
reflected by the zero datum in Figure 11. Analysis of the records indicated
that the dynamic forces occurred at random frequency.
21. Maximum and average values of force per foot of stilling basin
width, measured for various hydraulic conditions with various stilling basin
elements, both with and without the best spoiler design are tabulated in
Tables 3 and 4, respectively. The resultant forces and their respective loca-
tions are plotted versus unit discharge in Plates 5 and 6, respectively. As
the unit discharge increases, the magnitude of the forces increases and the
location of the resultant force generally varies from about 10 to 60 ft down-
stream from the pin (Plate 6). The data in Plate 5 also indicate that the
spoiler had no significant effect on the magnitude of the forces. It is noted
in Plate 5 that for a given unit flow rate the forces measured with the gates
fully open tend to be less than those measured for gated flows. This is
attributed to the fact that with the gates fully open there is a different
flow pattern, less energy dissipation in the stilling basin, and higher veloc-
ities and greater scour potential in the downstream channel. The tabulated
values in Tables 3 and 4 show that the resultant force FR was always upward
in a downstream direction (Figure 10) at an angle with the horizontal that
usually varied between 30 and 60 deg. Tests conducted with the partial adja-
cent high bay gate in the model fully open or closed (Figure 4) indicated no

22. The hydraulic conditions used for test I (Table 3) of the existingstilling basin without the best spoiler also were simulated to evaluate the
stilling basin with the modules removed (Test 20, Table 3), with the front row
of baffles removed (Test 21, Table 3), and with both rows of baffles removed
(Test 22, Table 3). The results of these tests are tabulated in Table 3 andare included in the data plotted in Plates 5 and 6.
High bays
23. Tests were conducted to investigate the hydraulic forces acting
on the high bay portion of the stilling basin (per foot of width). Theinstrumented section and procedure for measuring the forces and analyzing the
data are identical to those described for the low bays.

24. The various hydraulic conditions investigated are shown in
Photos 13-31. Maximum and average values of force per foot of stilling basin
width are tabulated in Table 5. The tabulated values indicate that the re-
sultant force was always upward and in a downstream direction. For given
headwaters and tailwaters, the uplift forces acting on the stilling basin
downstream from the low gate bays are larger than those acting on the portion
of the basin downstream from the high gate bays. This is attributed to the
relatively greater depth and higher unit discharge of flow through the low
gate bays. Forces on the stilling basin were not significantly affected by
the addition of the 1-ft-high spoilers.
Survey Boat Safety
25. Tests were conducted to evaluate various gated flow conditions that
may be critical to the safety of a survey boat operating upstream of the high
and low bay portions of the spillway. The model survey boat simulated the
approximate length (30 ft) and width (8 ft) of a typical survey boat. The
test results obtained from operation of the high and low bay portions of the 0structure are shown in Plates 7 and 8, respectively. With reference to the
notations in Plates 7 and 8, the term "unsafe" signifies the overturning or
passage of the boat beneath the gates; "questionably safe" indicates that the
boat is unstable and subject to excessive rocking or listing; and "reasonably
safe" signifies that the boat was stable upstream of the gates. Upstream and
downstream views of the structure are shown in Photos 32 and 33. The data on
Plates 7 and 8 indicate that a survey boat operating upstream of the high or
low bays should be safe with gate openings equal to or less than 30 percent of
the head on the crest.
Debris Passage
26. Tests were conducted with the high and low bays to determine the
gate openings required for passage of debris. The debris used in the model
simulated various sizes of logs up to a maximum length of 35 ft and a thick- Iness of 3.0 ft. Results are shown in Plates 9 and 10. Flow conditions that
do not and do permit debris passage are shown in Photos 32 and 33, respec-
tively. Since the buoyancy, shape, and size of debris are variable, the
20
-
curves in Plates 9 and 10 are rough approximations. However, the data indi-
cate that for the high and low bays some debris would pass with gage openings
equal to about 30 to 40 percent of the head on the crest and that the chance
for debris passage increases as the gate opening increases.S

PART IV: DISCUSSION AND SUMMARY OF RESULTS
27. A hydraulic model investigation of the Old River Low-Sill Control
Structure was conducted to (a) investigate the feasibility of rehabilitating
the portion of the stilling basin apron between the baffle piers and end sill;
(b) develop guidance relative to survey boat safety, and (c) determine gate
openings necessary for debris passage.
28. The apron between the baffle piers and end sill was overlaid with
modules, and tests were conducted to determine the uplift forces on the
modules. To reduce uplift on the module, 1-ft-high spoilers were installed at
the downstream end of the second row of baffles. Test results indicated that
the uplift forces acting on the module downstream from the low bays with or
without the spoilers are larger than those acting on the module downstream
from the high gate bays. The higher uplift forces were attributed to the re-
latively greater depth and unit discharge of flow through the low gate bays.
29. Test results indicated that the addition of the 1-ft-high spoilers
had no significant effect on the sliding or uplift forces acting on the
stilling basin.
30. Tests conducted to evaluate survey boat safety indicated that a
survey boat operating upstream of the gate bays should be safe with gate open-
ings equal to or less than 30 percent of the head on the crest.
31. Tests conducted to evaluate debris passage indicated that debris up
to 35 ft long and 3.0 ft thick would pass through the structure with gate
openings equal to about 30 to 40 percent of the head on the crest.
