For multi-section drainage facilities, it is important to develop operational measures based on maneuvering moving barriers. Maneuvering of moving barriers is a measure that carries out the flow of water from the upper reaches to the lower reaches at the required level, taking into accounts the design features and operational mode of the hydraulic regime of the drainage structure. The maneuvering mode in the flow of water from the discharge structures ensures the order of opening, phasing, and level of opening of these movable barriers. Hydraulic conditions are associated with the effective control of the hydraulic regime in the lower part of the drainage structure or the suppression of excess kinetic energy, the reversal of the flow, or the prevention of post-riser deformation processes. Creating conditions ensuring that the hydrotechnical and hydropower construction of the water transfer or discharge facility is adapted for use in conjunction with a hydropower plant, water intake, sluices, and flow control system.
