The present investigation delves into the intricate dynamics surrounding the incorporation of thresholds and their consequential impact on parameters associated with hydraulic jumps—a phenomenon critical to the efficient functioning of the gates. In the pursuit of a comprehensive understanding, the study employed experimental models of thresholds crafted from polyethylene. These models underwent meticulous examination, encompassing variations in dimensions, widths, and positions relative to the gate. The positions explored included beneath the gate, tangent to the gate upstream, and downstream, each contributing unique insights into the behavior of water flow and energy dissipation. An intriguing outcome emerged as thresholds were introduced at different locations. The energy dissipation for a given gate opening exhibited a discernible increase, shedding light on the intricate relationship between threshold placement and hydraulic performance. Notably, as the initial depth relative to the secondary depth increased, a consequential decrease in the ∆EAB/yA was observed, signaling a convergence between the initial and secondary depths. Further illuminating the findings, a comparative analysis of energy loss was conducted across all three threshold positions—beneath the gate, tangent to the gate upstream, and downstream. This scrutiny uncovered a distinct pattern, indicating a heightened energy dissipation in scenarios where the threshold was submerged, setting it apart from conditions where the threshold was positioned otherwise. In essence, the investigation not only accentuates the intricate interplay between sluice gates, thresholds, and hydraulic parameters but also underscores the importance of considering the placement of thresholds in optimizing the energy dissipation efficiency of these hydraulic structures.
