§ 6.6.2. Baffled Outlet

Latest version.

Baffled outlets are used to dissipate the discharge energy from flow in a pipe. They are normally used at outlets from detention ponds or storm drainage systems. The baffles are intended to decrease the discharge velocities and subsequent erosion of the receiving system. The design detail for a baffled outlet can be found in the City of Austin Standards (see Reference 6-3).
