Question: Water discharging into an 8-m-wide rectangular horizontal channel from a sluice gate is observed to have undergone a hydraulic jump. The flow depth and velocity
Water discharging into an 8-m-wide rectangular horizontal channel from a sluice gate is observed to have undergone a hydraulic jump. The flow depth and velocity before the jump are 1.2 m and 9 m/s, respectively. Determine
(a) The flow depth and the Froude number after the jump,
(b) The head loss and the dissipation ratio,
(c) The mechanical energy dissipated by the hydraulic jump.
