HS1122128-PondPack--What are the flow characteristics of a Contracted Weir?

Solution

A contracted weir is typically produced when the approach width upstream of the weir is greater than the weir crest width in such a configuration as to develop a full contraction or reduced area of flow at the sides of the weir.
