Abstract: The current experimental work deliberates for the parameters of jump downstreamTwo Vertical Overlapping Gates (TVOG). The proposed TVOG allows dividingthe flow via two openings. The lower one is under the lower gate, while the upperone is proposed between the gates. Experiments are examined on a rectangularflume of 66 cm width, 65.5 cm depth and 16.2 m length. The ideal percentage ofthe upper opening related to the lower one is detected experimentally. It is foundthat, working TVOG by upper opening fifty percent of the lower one wastes theflow energy by 52% and shrinks the basin length by 4.3%.
