This paper presents a brief history of the hydraulic jump and literature review on jumps’ experimental numerical studies. Leonardo da Vinci noticed this phenomenon early on, but it was only later studied by Bidone in 1820. Since beginning 20th century, has received lot attention following development energy dissipater designs stilling basins. The late 1920s 1930s saw many studies researching su...

We consider shallow water flows through a channel with a contraction by experimental and theoretical means. The horizontal channel consists of a sluice gate and an upstream channel of constant width b0 ending in a linear contraction of minimum width bc. Experimentally, we observe upstream steady and moving bores/shocks, and oblique waves in the contraction, as single and multiple steady states,...

Hydraulic fracturing is one of the most common methods of well stimulation for reservoirs with low permeability. Hydraulic fracturing increases the flow capacity, alters flow geometry, bypasses damage and improves recovery factor. The pressure of most of Iranian oil reservoirs is declined and consequently the production is reduced. It is necessary to improve the production by using new stimulat...

In this paper, we describe the nonlinear outcome of spiral shocks in protoplan-etary disks. Spiral shocks, for most protoplanetary disk conditions, create a loss of vertical force balance in the post-shock region and result in rapid expansion of the gas perpendicular to the disk midplane. This expansion has characteristics similar to hydraulic-jumps, which occur in incompressible fluids. We pre...

Abstract A hydraulic-stepped spillway was designed using an aeration basin to provide aerated flow the stepped utilizing a hydraulic jump. However, through entrance of might separate from first step top and impact downstream steps at large unit discharge, causing so-called jet flow. new experimental study conducted better understand in hydraulic-jump-stepped with comparisons conventional spillw...

Hydraulic jumps at the tail end of spillways are usually induced by baffle blocks or other obstacles. Such jumps can also be induced by jets that oppose the main flow. Another application is to back up turbidity currents in reservoirs by means of opposing jets. This measure can be adopted when transfer tunnels feed water into the reservoir at a higher elevation near the dam. Stopping the turbid...
