ABSTRACT
This experiment tackles on getting the hydraulic jump through the Multi-Purpose Teaching Flume
(HM 160.0) and Crump Weir Accessory –Rectangular and Triangular Section – (HM 160.33), as
well as to analyze and interpret the data and results. Develop a hydraulic jump model from the
associated parameters such as length and depth of jump, Froude’s Number, celerity, and head lost
for the two types of channel sections, as well as, to acquire graphs for comparison and analysis.
This is done by the used of hydraulic jump such as the significance of such parameters in the
experiment to be able interpret and synthesize the formulated model for the two types of channel.
1 INTRODUCTION
Start with the general objective of the research. The general objective should provide the
answer to the problem just stated above. In a way, the general objective is a restatement of the
Interest in the hydraulic jump began to increase after the early 19th century. In 1828,
Belanger connected the hydraulic jump with the Momentum Principle. Gibson (1913) did some
experiments and the results gave the best verification of the Momentum Principle in the hydraulic
jump. By way of general description, a hydraulic jump occurs when flow changes from supercritical
to subcritical flow in a short distance. In other words, the flow depths change from low stage to high
stage.
Hydraulic jump observed in open channels hold responsible to rapidly varied flow where
velocity occurs from super-critical flow to sub-critical flow indicating a significant change. This is
due to the presence of structures that blocks the movement of flow in open channels. One
impressive example forming hydraulic jump is under-shot weir or gate seen in canals where flow
goes through high velocity beneath gates with upstream small depth and goes back to an elevated
downstream conjugate depth afar from the gate with lesser velocity. Froude number defined as
ratio of inertia to the external field, shows the clear effect of non-uniform flow velocity in open
channels, gaining supercritical flow at Froude number greater than 1, considering that sub-critical
flow is determined at Froude number lesser than 1. Formation of hydraulic jump in canals have its
advantage. One main advantage is energy dissipation downstream spillways, where build-up of
water behind the gate combining the high velocity which suddenly declines downstream gate which
helps it avoid erosion and scour. (El-Seddik, 2017)
A few of laboratory experiments were performed to explore the upstream conjugate depth for
different discharges and downstream water depths by regulating both flow meter and over-shot
weir. Types of hydraulic jump can be noticed by simulating Froude number responsible for super-
critical flow under the impact of upstream conjugate depth. A novel alteration was made to show
the response of hydraulic jump accompanied by critical depth exploration using different flow
structures. Moreover, the area of hydraulic jump coupled with energy dissipated is checked by
changing the sluice gate opening in the flume.
The findings of this study will benefit design engineers. A properly designed hydraulic jump
can provide for 60-70% energy dissipation of the energy in the basin itself, limiting the damage to
structures and the streambed. Even with such efficient energy dissipation, stilling basins must be
carefully designed to avoid serious damage due to uplift, vibration, cavitation, and abrasion. And
for the researchers, this study will help them uncover critical areas in the educational process that
researchers were not able to explore.
The main goal is to know the importance of hydraulic jump on the daily lives of workers who
work often with hydraulics. This study has five purposes this are to know other uses of hydraulic
jump, to know the relevance of hydraulic jump for civil engineering, to know how this hydraulic jump
in sluice gate system works, to know the limitations of hydraulic jump system and to know if this
study can contribute to some engineers.

Future Researchers. The study has five purposes this are to know other uses of hydraulic
jump, to know the relevance of hydraulic jump for civil engineering, to know how this hydraulic jump
in sluice gate system works, to know the limitations of hydraulic jump system and to know if this
study can contribute to some engineers.
1.4 Scope and Delimitations
The new method can be used to predict the performance of sluice gates with
different sizes under free -flow situations. These results may attract and guide numerical
modelers of flow. A free flow automation measuring and controlling system based on
single chip.
According to Youngkyu Kim, Gyewoon Choi, Hyoseon Park and Seongjoon Byeon,
2015. Movable weirs have been developed to address the weaknesses of conventional
fixed weirs. However, the structures for riverbed protection downstream of movable weirs
are designed using the criteria of fixed weirs in most cases, and these applications cause
problems, such as scour and deformation of structures, due to misunderstanding the
difference between different types of structures. In this study, a hydraulic experiment was
conducted to examine weir type-specific hydraulic phenomena, compare hydraulic jumps
and downstream flow characteristics according to different weir types, and analyze
hydraulic characteristics, such as changes in water levels, velocities and energy.
Additionally, to control the flow generated by a sluice gate, energy dissipators were
examined herein for their effectiveness in relation to different installation locations and
heights. As a result, it was found that although sluice gates generated hydraulic jumps
similar to those of fixed weirs, their downstream supercritical flow increased to eventually
elongate the overall hydraulic jumps. In energy dissipator installation, installation heights
were found to be sensitive to energy dissipation. The most effective energy dissipator
height was 10% of the downstream free surface water depth in this experiment. Based on
these findings, it seems desirable to use energy dissipators to reduce energy, as such
dissipators were found to be effective in reducing hydraulic jumps and protecting the
riverbed under sluice gates.

Input Factors
Depth of Hydraulic The depth of hydraulic jump is the measurement of depth from the
Jump (m) upstream and downstream flow.
Discharge (m3/s) The discharge is the volume of water passing on a certain amount of
time in the HM 160.0 Laboratory Apparatus.
Base of the flume (m) The base of the flume is the length measured 300mm based on its
technical description
Output Responses
Velocity (m/s) From the continuity equation which is solely based on the principle of
mass conservation, velocity is the ratio of volumetric flow rate to cross
sectional area of any hydraulic structure or system.
Head loss (m) It is the loss of head from the difference in energies before and after
the initial jump which can be determined using the Bernoulli’s equation.
Power loss (W) Power loss is caused by the change or difference in energies from the
supercritical flow to subcritical flow. It is directly proportional to the unit
weight of the fluid, volumetric flow rate, and head loss.
Froude Number Froude Number is a dimensionless quantity which is used to indicate
the influence of gravity on fluid motion. It describes the different flow
regimes of open channel flow which is also a ratio of inertial and
gravitational forces. Froude Number is equal to 1 for critical flow,
greater than 1 for super-critical flow, and less than 1 for sub-critical
flow.
Type of Jump The type of jump for both channel section is determined by Froude
Number.

assesses potential differences in a scale-level dependent variable by a
nominal-level variable having few categories. One -Way ANOVA (also
known as Factorial Analysis) will be used in the design of experiment

3.1.6 Evaluation
Hydraulic jump occurs in an open channel where a sudden increase in water occurs. This
phenomenon transpires when a high-speed, supercritical flow upstream is rapidly slowed and
changes to subcritical flow. In the figure below, note that Y 1 and Y2 are supercritical depth and
subcritical depth, respectively. The length of hydraulic jump is the distance (L) between the point of
supercritical depth and subcritical depth.
Height of Jump
Height of jump is the difference between subcritical depth and supercritical depth.
H= Y2 – Y1
Critical depth of an open channel is the minimum depth of water above ground level at
which the velocity of flow is very high and flow takes place with more of turbulence. The velocity of
water at this depth is called as critical velocity.

Hydraulic jump is a phenomenon where a rise in water surface occurs. Along with the rise
in the water surface, there is also loss of energy near the change in the grade line. By derivation,
energy dissipated in jump is equal to the head loss in the jump.

Based from the One Way ANOVA calculations, with the use of F-distribution table,
the obtained F-value 3.519217541 is greater than the F-critical value 3.4903. Therefore,
the F-value falls outside the area to which the null hypothesis should be accepted. In this
case, the null hypothesis should be rejected and most probably that some factors have a
significant relationship to the development of hydraulic jump.
5 SUMMARY, CONCLUSIONS, AND RECOMMENDATIONS
5.1 Summary
5.2 Conclusions
Throughout the experiment, several conclusion could be drawn. Example of that is the
reason why hydraulic jump is created because of the sudden change of velocity, the water flow is
abrupt causing the water surface to increase till it remain constant again. This phenomenon causes
the potential energy to convert to kinetic energy and returns to potential energy and some heat as it
dissipated.
5.3 Recommendations
Sluice gate provides a convenient means of flow regulation, especially in irrigation and
drainage schemes where flow has to be distributed in networks of interconnected channels. The
gate is provided with a lifting mechanism so that the aperture beneath it may be set to any desired
position. When closed, the aperture is sealed so that no flow can pass through the gate. The height
of water which emerges from the aperture is stopping the flow so that a standing wave can be
formed downstream of the gate, and these where the hydraulic jump emerge or created.
Also in observation, the speed of transition of the hydraulic jump is dependent on the
discharge that is set on the apparatus. The larger the discharge the faster it gets. Several
parameters are measured during the experiment, such as the depth of water in both upstream and
downstream, the height before, during and after the jump etc.
