Energy Dissipators and Hydraulic Jump


Add your own review!

Overview

A review of the flow features in a hydraulic jump and its technical applications as an energy dissipator. Based on technical literature, it summarizes, compares and generalizes present ideas. Particular stress is laid on explaining the basic terms, describing effects of energy dissipation on various neighbouring fields and presenting prototype experiences with hydraulic jump dissipators. These structures are also compared with other means of energy dissipation found in dam engineering. As a result civil engineers working both in practice and in research may gain an impression of what is actually being done in a rapidly expanding fgield of applied hydraulics.

Reviews

'...the book clearly will be valuable to anyone involved in such design...it is of wider interest to fluid dynamicists as a guide to a substantial body of experimental work, and a reminder that for flows we are still a long way from reducing their study to analysis and computation.' Journal Fluid Mech. 247 (1993)
