Abstract: During the period September 2010–April 2011 the Institute of Hydraulic Engineering and Technical Hydromechanics (IWD), Technische Universitat Dresden, performed a model test series to investigate the planned flood retention basin Neuwurschnitz by order of the State Reservoir Administration of Saxony. The structure consists of a rockfill dam with a combined corridor structure in the middle of the dam including two outlets and a spillway. The energy dissipation takes place in a depression shaped plunge pool. Central issues of the investigation were the performance of the outlets and the spillway as well as the effected energy dissipation in the depression basin considering three scenarios. The paper reports about the main observations and findings of the model tests.
