Experimental Scene
We designed and produced a full-scale model (1/40 scale model), an orifice extraction model (1/25 scale model), and a reservoir extraction model (1/40 scale model), and examined emergency spillways, normal spillways, embankment toe guide sections, energy dissipation works, driftwood countermeasures, etc. The video shows the experiment with the full-scale model.
