Flow discharge over an oblique weir is greater than that over a straight or plain weir for the same water head due to its extra length with respect to the channel width or fully extended plain weir. In this study, a new theoretical approach is used for the hydraulics of oblique weirs. The main objective is to investigate the eect of dierent hydraulic and geometric properties of the ow and the weir on the ow de ection angle and discharge coecients for free and submerged ow over oblique weirs. This approach is based on energy, momentum and continuity equations. For improving the performance of this kind of weir, one approach is to increase the ow de ection until it is perpendicular to the oblique weir for maximum use of the weir length. The submerged guide vanes have also been used and investigated theoretically. The data for calibration of the models are taken from Borghei et al.(2003). It is shown that by employing guide vanes, for some cases, the discharge coecient can be increased up to 33%. Finally, new relations were developed for practical purposes.
