“…A review of previous studies indicated that rectangular sharp-crested side weirs have been investigated extensively, including work by Ackers (1957), Collings (1957), Frazer (1957), Subramanya and Awasthy (1972), El-Khashab and Smith (1976), Uyumaz and Muslu (1985), Hager (1987Hager ( , 1994, Helweg (1991), Singh et al (1994), Agaccioglu and Yüksel (1998), Venutelli (2008) and Durga Rao and Pillai (2008). Borghei et al (1999) studied the discharge coefficient for sharp-crested side weirs in subcritical flow and developed an equation for the discharge coefficient of sharp-crested rectangular side weirs.…”
