Many of the hydropower dams in Sweden need to be refurbished in order to be able to handle higer design floods. A part of the work in refurbishing the dams is to build physical models. When the physical models are built the uppstream reservoir area is designed to be a couple of times wider and longer than the spillway. This practice is often enough to create a realistic discharge through a bottom outlet, if this design practice is enough to create a realistic discharge through a surface spillway has however not been investigated. This thesis used computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modelling to investigate how the discharge through a surface spillway changes based on the uppstream reservoir area. Five different geometries were created in siz...
