When studies on gated conduits are examined, it is determined that the air-demand ratio changes according to the hydraulic and geometric parameters. However, no study has investigated the effect of the cross-sectional geometry of high-head conduits with a sluice gate on the air-demand ratio. In this study, the effect of conduit cross-sectional geometry on the air-demand ratio is examined. Results indicate that a conduit's cross-sectional geometry has an important effect on the air-demand ratio, especially at 10% and 15% gate opening rates. It is seen that the effect of the conduit geometry on the air-demand ratio decreases at 20%, and for greater gate opening rates. Moreover, a formula for estimated the air-demand ratio is presented, relating the air-demand ratio to the gate opening rate, Froude number, hydraulic radius and conduit length.</dc:description><dc:publisher>ICE Publishing</dc:publisher><dc:date>2023</dc:date><dc:type>Article</dc:type><dc:identifier>https://rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/r/munzur/1815</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>https://doi.org/10.1680/jwama.22.00048</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>1741-7589</dc:identifier><dc:language>en</dc:language><dc:relation>Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers: Water Management</dc:relation><dc:rights>info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess</dc:rights><dc:type>info:eu-repo/semantics/article</dc:type><dc:identifier>https://munzur-rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/tr/items/munzur/1815</dc:identifier></oai_dc:dc></metadata></record></GetRecord></OAI-PMH>
