A hydraulic jump forms at the downstream end of a spillway having 1 m width and carrying 3.132 m/s discharge. If the depth
of water before jump is 0.8 m, determine the depth of water after jump.
EXPLANATION
Varied Flow & Hydraulic Jump
- Hydraulic Jump Sequent Depth Calculation:
- Bélanger's Momentum Equation:
- Parameters:
- Channel width $B = 1\text{ m}$, Discharge $Q = 3.132\text{ m}^3\text{/s} \implies q = Q/B = 3.132\text{ m}^2\text{/s}$.
- Initial depth $y_1 = 0.8\text{ m}$.
- Initial velocity $v_1 = \frac{q}{y_1} = \frac{3.132}{0.8} = 3.915\text{ m/s}$.
- Initial Froude number:
- Post-Jump Depth ($y_2$):
- Conclusion: Depth of water after jump is 1.23 m (Option 1).
Correct option: (1) 23m
