Hydraulic Model Studies for Whiting Field Naval Air Station, Part I - Part IV

The purpose of this report is to discuss tests made on a straight drop spillway and its energy dissipator and to present a design of energy dissipator for use in B Ditch at the Whiting Field Naval Air Station, Milton, Florida. The particular structure on which tests were made is designated B-6, but similar designs will be used for Structures F-5, G-2, L-2, S-l, and Y-6. The tests were requested by Mr. Moratz on September 27, 1948, the request amended on October 6, 1948, and the study completed on October 14, 1948.Conducted by Soil Conservation Service - Research, United States Department of Agriculture in cooperation with Minnesota Agricultural Experiment Station and the St. Anthony Falls Hydraulic Laborator
