A NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF HYDRAULIC JUMP SHAPES ON WIDENING STEEP SLOPE CHANNELS

Abstract

The MacConnack scheme has some advantages in calculations of flow in steep slope channels withhydraulic jumps. However, in point of calculation stability and so foirth, the MacCormack scheme has not become a method which is fully generalized.
We made experiments on hydraulic jump shapes on widening steep slope channels and simulated calculations on experimental results. The comparison between the experimental results and calculated ones indicates the validity of simulation method.
