Abstract
This paper present the effect of the lower gate lip on the coefficient of contraction, velocity and discharge which have been made in a rectangular flume with four gates opening from (2 to 4.5) cm, five different discharges from (6.2 to 18.15) l/s and five different gate cases (vertical and inclined vertically) by angle ( 45 )° with and opposite flow direction with horizontal and sharp lower lip. The values of coefficients of contraction (C c ) and discharge (C d ) increases when gate slope increases with flow direction and the lower lip is horizontal, these increases are (16 ) % and (18 ) % respect tively, while these values decreases when gate slope increases opposite flow direction and the lower lip is horizontal these decreases are (13 ) % and (11 ) % respectively. The values of coefficient of velocity (C v ) remain constant and don’t effect with changes of gate slope or gate lip.
