Ltd.10.26689/jera.v9i1.9446ArticleStudy on the Hydraulic Performance and Efficiency of a Siphon Sediment Discharge Device with Bottom Hole Opening through Simulation Experiments https://artdesignp.com/journal/JERA/9/1/10.26689/jera.v9i1.9446HuiHenglong,LiYan,CuiZhiying2025912025-02-12In this study, the hydraulic behavior and sand transport efficiency of the siphon automatic sand discharge device were studied by software simulation tests. By simulating the actual situation, this study analyzed how factors such as the difference in water level, sediment concentration, and pipeline layout affected the sediment discharge effect. The results show that the sediment discharge device can effectively discharge sediment under diverse operating conditions and show adaptability to different environmental conditions, which indicates that it is suitable for various types of reservoir environments.
