  • Professionals Australia's Response on Behalf of Members in Relation to The
    Professionals Australia’s response on behalf of members in relation to the proposed restructure PA met with engineers who work in the Engineering Division on two occasions at WNSW Parramatta offices with members dialling-in from regional NSW. PA encouraged members to put forward their professional views on the proposed restructure on whether it addressed existing problems. PA has received some very detailed responses from our members. It is clear there is a high level of concern that the restructure will have undesired impacts on both employees and the functions of Engineering. Many members have taken the opportunity to respond directly to the WNSW email address set up for feedback. This submission does not repeat those comments. This submission is concerned with the first order issue – Does the restructure enhance the undertaking of engineering functions by WaterNSW or not? The next level of concerns which appear to be the main focus of the input provided via the WNSW email are the detail of position descriptions and the arrangements for filling the structure. We understand such matters have also attracted a large number of comments and concerns from members. However, those issues arise only when the first order issue is satisfied. The focus of this submission is whether the restructure has accurately identified the deficiencies and whether the proposal will address those deficiencies. What can a restructure address? A restructure can address issues such as resourcing levels, specific function focus and functional alignment. It cannot address issues caused by dysfunctional organisational behaviour, lack of effective processes, etc. Does the restructure enhance engineering functions at WNSW? The view of WNSW engineers is that overall the restructure will not result in the enhanced performance of the engineering functions required by WNSW.

  • Weekly Report 17 April 2019
    River Murray Weekly Report For the week ending Wednesday, 17 April 2019 Trim Ref: D19/22129 Rainfall and inflows Conditions were dry across the Murray-Darling Basin this week, with almost the entire basin devoid of any rainfall (map 1). The Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) is forecasting negligible rain over the coming 8 days. Map 1. Murray-Darling Basin rainfall map week ending 17 April 2019 (Source: Bureau of Meteorology) Flow in the upper Murray tributaries continued to recede this week. The flow in the upper Mitta Mitta River at Hinnomunjie Bridge reduced from 210 ML/day to 180 ML/day. The upper Murray at Biggara eased from 240 ML/day to 220 ML/day. Downstream of Hume Reservoir, inflow from the Kiewa River at Bandiana receded from 380 ML/day, to the current flow of 240 ML/day. Flow in the Ovens River at Wangaratta averaged 240 ML/day. In the northern Basin, flows resulting from rain over some upper catchments in recent weeks are continuing to move steadily downstream along various tributaries. The most significant flows resulted from rain over the far north of the Basin that generated flood flows along the upper Warrego River. These flows are now moving through the lower Warrego and spreading out through the large distributary network, including along the Cuttaburra Channel that connects flow across to the Paroo River. These flows are recharging wetlands and providing welcome benefits to a fairly parched region of the northern Basin, but are expected to provide little if any significant connecting flow through to the Darling River.

  • Flow-Induced Vibration in Radial Gates During Extreme Flood Karen Riddette and David Ho Worleyparsons Services Pty Ltd
    Assessment of flow-induced vibration in radial gates during extreme flood Karen Riddette and David Ho WorleyParsons Services Pty Ltd Recent dam safety reviews of a number of Australian dams have identified that the arms of raised radial gates may be partially submerged by extreme flows which exceed the original design flood for the dam. Various design solutions have been proposed to secure and strengthen the radial gates, however an important concern is the potential for flow-induced vibration. Under extreme flood conditions, flows near the gate arms will be high-velocity, free-surface, with a steep angle of attack on the arm beams. Traditional hand calculations for computing vibrations are of limited applicability in this situation, and there is little published data available for this combination of flow conditions and arm geometry. A detailed study using CFD modelling of the potential for vibration around radial gate arms was carried out for Wyangala Dam. This paper presents the results of the validation and reveals some interesting flow patterns and vortex shedding behaviour. Keywords: flow-induced vibration, radial gates, CFD, Wyangala Dam, vortex shedding, response frequency. Introduction In light of revised extreme flood estimates around Australia, dam safety reviews have been carried out for a number of existing large dams that control spillway flows using radial gates. Hydraulic modelling of flows up to Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) has identified several spillways with the potential for the arms and trunnions of existing radial gates to be partially submerged by the peak flow. Various upgrade solutions have been proposed to mitigate against this impact, for example at Wivenhoe Dam in Queensland a flat plate deflector was installed upstream of the radial gates to deflect flows away from the arms (Maher and Rodd 2005).
