Effect of Bed Roughness and Negative Step on Characteristics of Hydraulic Jump in Rectangular Stilling Basin
Water flow often releases excess energy after passing through gates and spillways. This energy should be reduced to avoid the destruction of downstream structures.

| Summary: | Water flow often releases excess energy after passing through gates and spillways. This energy should be reduced to avoid the destruction of downstream structures. The hydraulic jump, a natural phenomenon, inevitably reduces incoming flow energy. The experiments were carried out in this study to investigate the effect of bed roughness and abrupt negative drops on the characteristics of the hydraulic jump. Also, to investigate the effect of geometric and hydraulic parameters on energy dissipation and location of the hydraulic jump, there was a change in the height of the abrupt drop and roughness for different discharges between 30 and 50 L/s and the Froude numbers were ranging from 4.9 to 9.5. The results showed that increasing the bed roughness causes a reduction of the sequent depth ratio and the relative length of the jump by 16.6% and 20.7%, respectively, and increases the relative energy loss and the bed shear force coefficient by 10% and 31%, respectively. In contrast, increasing the step height causes an increase in the sequent depth ratio and the relative length of the jump by 6.5% and 7%, respectively, and increases the relative energy loss and the bed shear force coefficient by 11% and 3.2%, respectively. |
