The turnover-type sluice gate is typically actuated by the open circuit hydrauic system since the single-rod cylinder is used rather than the double-rod cylinder. However, here the closed circuit hydrauic system is applied for the operation of turnover-type sluice gate for the purpose of convenient operation. The closed circuit hydraulic system of turnover-type sluice gate is composed of a bi-directional pump, single-rod cylinders, pilot operated check valves, check valves and a counter balance valve. The usefulness of the closed circuit hydraulic system is verified for the several operational conditions by the computer simulations.

The turnover-type sluice gate is typically actuated by the hydrauic system. The hydraulic system may be a open circuit type or a closed circuit type. The open circuit type hydraulic system is composed of a uni-directional pump, a directional control valve, pilot operated check valves, flow control valves, single-rod cylinders. The closed circuit type hydraulic system is composed of a bi-directional pump, pilot operated check valves, check valves, a counter balance valve, single-rod cylinders. The energy efficiencies of two hydraulic systems for the turnover-type sluice gate are compared here.
