Spillway
Product Code : LSK-FM-10441
Spillway (SKU LSK-FM-10441) is a four-part model spillway for observing and calculating flow and energy dissipation over spillways in the hydraulics laboratory. Interchangeable downstream parts let students compare how different end arrangements handle the flow leaving the crest. It suits civil and water resources engineering practicals at degree and diploma level. Made by Science Lab Supplies, which manufactures its channel models at Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala, India, the spillway is quoted to colleges, contractors and distributors with no agent involved.
Specifications
The spillway model's parts and uses are itemised in the table. In short, the set consists of the spillway, a detachable ski jump, a plain apron and a removable toothed block; changing the downstream arrangement lets one spillway show different ways of dissipating energy, and it can also work with the Energy Dissipation unit.

Applications and Experiments for the Spillway
Students run water over the spillway, observe the flow profile and measure depths upstream and downstream to calculate discharge and the energy lost. Swapping the ski jump for the plain apron, with or without the toothed block, shows how each arrangement changes the flow and the hydraulic jump below the structure.
- B.Tech / B.E. civil engineering: discharge and flow profile over an overflow spillway.
- Energy dissipation below spillways: ski jump against apron with toothed block, with jet paths compared to the water-jet profiles plotted on the Jet Trajectory and Orifice Flow apparatus.
- Diploma water resources courses: flow at dam outlets, alongside catchment and runoff studies on the Hydrology And Rainfall Apparatus.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each spillway set comprises four parts: the spillway, the detachable ski jump, the plain apron and the removable toothed block. The Energy Dissipation unit and the flow channel the spillway is tested in are separate items; optional accessories are listed on the quotation.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
One spillway or a set for several channels can be quoted, and the quotation will list the packing, delivery time and price for that quantity. Weirs, gates and other engineering lab equipment in India from the same range may be added.
Holding an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Rwanda, South Africa, Qatar, Sri Lanka, Vietnam and Malaysia. Mention the channel width you work with when you write via the contact page, or simply drop the model into the enquiry cart; tender rules are set out on the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
What parts does the spillway model include?
Four: the spillway, a detachable ski jump, a plain apron and a removable toothed block, which together allow several downstream arrangements to be compared.
What is the toothed block for?
It sits on the plain apron to break up the fast flow leaving the spillway, so students can compare energy dissipation with and without it and against the ski jump.
Is Science Lab Supplies the manufacturer or a trader?
All four parts of the spillway are produced by Science Lab Supplies at its factory in Saha, Ambala, India. As the manufacturer, the company quotes the model itself rather than through an agent.
Can the spillway be used with other models?
Yes. It can be used with the Energy Dissipation unit to extend the range of possible experiments, and both items can be quoted together for the same flow channel.
