Book excerpt: Excerpt from Soil and Water Conservation Structures, Demonstrations and Field Applications Both good and poor hydraulic performance of various types of structures can be shown with models placed in a demonstration channel such as the one pictured. In this channel a variety of flow rates can be produced simply by turning a valve. The performance of these structures during floods as well as their performance at more usual flows can also be simulated. However, the pictures of the demonstration channel structures presented here show flood flows because flood flows usually provide the most severe test of performance. Viewers of live demonstrations of hydraulic structures should try to imagine that they are looking at a structure 5 to 50 times larger than the one they actually see.
