the intake structure of the proposed dutch gulch dam will provide effective regulation of both flood-control and water quality releases. the model investigation of the outlet works for the proposed structure was concerned with verification and improvement of the hydraulic design of the intake structure, conduit, and stilling basin. the study was conducted in a 1:25-scale model of the outlet works, which reproduced a portion of the approach area, the intake structure, the outlet conduit, the hydraulic jump type stilling basin, and approximately 400 ft of exit channel. pressure flow occurred in the turbine exit chamber for turbine releases greater than 600 cfs. enlarging the exit chamber portal and streamlining the portal invert should result in greater turbine releases under partial flow conditions. the conduit experienced slug flow for a wide range of flood-control discharges, which create surges in the stilling basin and exit channel. as a result of model tests, changes were made in the design of the exit channel to pass the desired discharges. the stilling basin baffle piers were also modified.
