There are a lot of sedimentation problems in front of Nile River intakes. In this research, the baffle column approach was investigated to reduce the amount of sediment entering the intake structures without any adverse impacts on the operation process. The objectives of this study are: Identification and prediction of the morphological changes along the Nile River, Investigate in details the morphological changes in the area surrounding the intake of the water cooling system which is considered as a near field region, Study the impact of sedimentation problem in the intake structures and Study the mitigation measures of sedimentation problem in front of the intake structure. The physical model is used to simulate different flow conditions. The results will be shown with and without using the baffle columns. The model shows that baffle columns are effective in reducing the amount of sediment entering the intake.
