Question:
Liquid flowing at high speed in a wide, horizontal open channel under some conditions can undergo a hydraulic jump, as shown. For a suitably chosen control volume, the flows entering and leaving the jump may be considered uniform with hydrostatic pressure distributions (see Example 4.7). Consider a channel of width \(w\), with water flow at \(D_{1}=0.6 \mathrm{~m}\) and \(V_{1}=5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\). Show that in general, \(D_{2}=D_{1}\left[\sqrt{1+8 V_{1}^{2} / g D_{1}}-1\right] / 2\).
Evaluate the change in mechanical energy through the hydraulic jump. If heat transfer to the surroundings is negligible, determine the change in water temperature through the jump.
