Abstract
INTRODUCTION A hydraulic jump causes kinetic energy dissipation downstream of the hydraulic structures, whenever the flow regime is changed from supercritical to subcritical flow. Stilling basins are considered for energy dissipation to reduce flow energy and create conditions for the occurrence of hydraulic jump in a specific position (Jain 2001). A significant parameter to determine hydraulic jump length is the bed roughness. The results of previous studies have shown that increasing the bed roughness may cause more energy dissipation and, accordingly, may change the hydraulic jump length. Peterka (1984), in the USBR laboratory, presented a graph (Lj/y2 vs Fr1) to determine hydraulic jump length based on numerous experiments in some channels. Ead and Rajarantnam (2002) investigated hydraulic jump over corrugated aluminium beds, and developed an empirical model. They found that hydraulic jump length over corrugated bed surfaces was approximately half the classical jump length. Izadjoo and Shafai-Bejestan (2007) studied hydraulic jump over four corrugated beds. Pagliara et al (2008) determined an equation for hydraulic jump length over both uniform and non-uniform rough beds in horizontal channels. In recent years, Chanson (2009), Alikhani et al (2010), Nasr Esfahani and Shafai Bajestan (2012), Imran and Akib (2013), and Riazi and Jafari (2014) have studied the effect of drop and barrier height, divergence angle of stilling basins and rough and corrugated bed on the characteristics of hydraulic jump and energy dissipation using dimensional analysis. Kumar and Lodhi (2016) investigated the effect of bed roughness heights on the characteristics of a hydraulic jump. They concluded that the bed roughness height has no considerable effect on hydraulic jump characteristics. Due to the impact of roughness on hydraulic jump, the main aim of this study was to develop a new model to estimate hydraulic jump lengths on horizontal rough beds using dimensional analysis and physical model tests.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the South African Institution of Civil Engineering publishes peer reviewed papers on all aspects of Civil Engineering relevant to Africa. It is an open access, ISI accredited journal, providing authoritative information not only on current developments, but also – through its back issues – giving access to data on established practices and the construction of existing infrastructure. It is published quarterly and is controlled by a Journal Editorial Panel.
The forerunner of the South African Institution of Civil Engineering was established in 1903 as a learned society aiming to develop technology and to share knowledge for the development of the day. The minutes of the proceedings of the then Cape Society of Civil Engineers mainly contained technical papers presented at the Society''s meetings. Since then, and throughout its long history, during which time it has undergone several name changes, the organisation has continued to publish technical papers in its monthly publication (magazine), until 1993 when it created a separate journal for the publication of technical papers.
