Resumen:

Given the inherent difficulties and constraints of taking measurements on a prototype and representing the behavior of air in a physical model, this paper presents comparative analysis results from air content measurements in a spillway bottom model with aerators. This was done using model measurements and an analytical model to define the accuracy and credibility of extrapolating results to the prototype. The numerical criterion used allows calculation of air concentration decay along the chute at the same point where the physical model measurements were made. Since air concentration can only be measured at the bottom of the prototype, it can be concluded that the analytical approach works well, and with some adjustments, the results can be extrapolated to measure other points on the prototype Air content at the bottom chute is the most important understanding for the protection spillway.
