Abstract
Understanding the intricate dynamics of hydraulic jumps in sloped channels holds pivotal importance in various engineering applications. This research explores the intricate relationship between the size of the bed material and the basic properties of hydraulic jumps, providing insight into the relative jump length, height, and energy efficiency. The goal of the research is to get important knowledge that will be useful for optimizing hydraulic systems and enhancing their overall efficiency in diverse engineering domains. This study used an open-channel flow arrangement with four-bed slopes (0° to 6°) and three irregularity heights (10 to 30 mm). During the investigation, the Froude number differed from 2.30 to 8.85 and the Reynolds number differed from 5450 to 25500. A novel instinctive technique was used to create correlations for different hydraulic jump characteristics in roughen-bed inclined channels. The study examines the combined effects of roughness and slope of the bed, and it was discovered that the relative jump height and efficiency of hydraulic jump increase by 19.37% and 8.44% respectively while the relative jump length decreases by 23.05% with an increase in bed slope from 0° to 6°. The relative jump height and efficiency of the hydraulic jump increase by 14.20% and 21.06% respectively while the relative jump length decreases by 29.09% with a rise in bed roughness from 0 to 30 mm.
