Title: EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON THE RESERVOIR DEPOSITION OF SEDIMENT MIXTURE WITH THE HYDRAULIC JUMP
Abstract: The process of sediment deposition in a steep slope reservoir was studied, experimentally in a laboratory flume for the mixture of fine and coarse sediment. From the critical section of the hydraulic jump, sediment deposition starts in a steep channel due to the reduction of flow velocity and progresses towards the dam, and the hydraulic jump shifts upwards from its previous position. Two deposition layers were observed during the experiment: a layer of finer particles on the initial bed and a layer of fine and coarse sediment mixture on the layer of finer particles, and they were found three-dimensional and twodimensional, respectively. The percentage of fine particle in the layer of the deposited mixture was found more towards the dam, whereas the percentage of the coarse particle was more to the upstream side.
