Abstract: The overall phenomenon of a hydraulic jump in prismatic, rectangular channels, whose bottom slope is considerable in the upstream and horizontal in the downstream reach is investigated. Based on detailed observations, expressions are derived for the sequent depths, the jump efficiency, the length characteristics and the horizontal bottom force component.
