Abstract : How to transfer the flood of a dam to the downstream and reduce its energy is one of the most important issues in the design of a dam. In recent years, due to the energy loss along its length, the stepped spillways have received a lot of attention from researchers. In this research, the values of energy loss have been investigated with the help of flow 3D software with different turbulence equations and their comparison with laboratory values. The results obtained from this research show that the model of normalized groups or RNG has the highest level of accuracy among different turbulence models.

Keywords : Stepped Spillway, Energy Dissipation, Flow 3D Software.
