Abstract :	[en] Because of the PK-Weir geometric specificities, its hydraulic capacity remains difficult to predict without using experimental techniques. A 1D numerical model of the flow over a PK-Weir has been developed at the Research unit HACH at the University of Liege. It is based on a 1D modeling of the inlet and the outlet separately, with a single upstream reservoir and interactions between both flows by exchange of mass and momentum along the lateral crest. The comparison of the numerical results with various experimental data showed the ability of the numerical model to predict with reasonable accuracy the release capacity of a PK-Weir, whatever its geometry. The tests of the solver enable to highlight the significant influence of the inlet and outlet width on the weir release capacity. They also suggest that improvements of the numerical model may lie in the evaluation of the discharge coefficient of the lateral crest.
