Hydraulic Jump in a Rectangular Open Channel with Abrupt Change in Slope

Experimental Investigation of the Characteristics of Hydraulic Jump in a Diverging Stilling Basin with an Adverse Slope Using Baffle Blocks

Stilling basins have been used as an energy dissipater downstream of hydraulic structures. Dimensions of the stilling basins depends on hydraulic jump characteristics. In this research diverging hydraulic jump with an adverse slope using baffle blocks and an end sill have been studied experimentally and effect of diverging angle of the walls, adverse bed slope and baffle blocks on the hydraulic...

Shape Effects and Definition of Hydraulic Radius in Manning 's Equation in Open Channel Flow

In the Manning equation the hydraulic radius can be defined as the cross-section dimension of the shape. In pipe flow the bed shear stress is assumed to be uniformly distributed along the wetted perimeter which cannot be true in open channel flow. Hence, three approximation of the true boundary shear-stress distribution are examined and more practical conveyance depth or resistance radius formu...

Three-dimensional flow of liquid crystalline polymers through rectangular channels with abrupt change in geometry

Three-dimensional flows of liquid crystalline polymers (LCPs) in a rectangular 3 to 1 abrupt contraction channel and a rectangular 1 to 3 abrupt expansion channel are numerically analyzed to investigate the molecular orientation behavior of LCPs in complex flows. A modified Doi model is used as a constitutive equation and MAC (marker and cell)-based finite difference method is employed for the ...

Bow-wave-like hydraulic jump and horseshoe vortex around an obstacle in a supercritical open channel flow

hydraulic jump properties in irrigation canals with corrugated bed

abstract one of the most frequently encountered cases of rapid varied flow is the hydraulic jump. it occurs when a supercritical open channel flow changes into sub critical flow. in the present research, the experimental study of the hydraulic jump on seven sinusoidal corrugated beds with different wave steepness. the wave steepness of sinusoidal corrugated beds is in the range of 0.1667 to 0.7...
