Sažetak
Pressure flushing is one of the methods that are used for removing sediments from reservoirs. In this research, submerged jets were used in front of the dam. A physical model was developed to study the influence of jet characteristics (nozzle diameter, jet velocity, and jet discharge) and reservoir output parameters (bottom outlet level and discharge) on the sediment release. The efficiency of the jets was established by comparing the sediment scour obtained under different conditions: once with jets and once without jets. The sediment scouring efficiency ranged between 0.9 and 3.1 for jet experiments, and between 0.1 and 0.3 for reference tests (without jets).
