Momentum Applications in Open Channel Flow
Momentum
ss mvF
Basic relationship in mechanics:
Sum of forces in the s direction
Change in momentum in the s direction
mass
Velocity in the s direction
Momentum cont.

• Considering a short section so that Rf is negligible and the channel slope is small so that sin is near zero the equation can be written as:

Momentum cont.
• M is called the momentum function or the specific force plus momentum.
• For a constant q, M can be plotted against depth to create a curve similar to the specific energy curve.
• Under steady conditions, M is constant from point to point along a channel reach.

Hydraulic Jumps
• Occurs when there is a sudden transition from supercritical (y < yc) to subcritical (y > yc) flow.
• Examples of where this may occur are :– At the foot of a spillway– Where a channel slope suddenly turns flat.
• In analyzing hydraulic jumps we assume there is conservation of momentum, i.e. :

• y1 is known as the initial depth and is < yc (supercritical flow).
• y2 is known as the sequent depth and is > yc (subcritical flow).

Example
Example 3.18, Streeter, et al.
If 12 m3/sec of water per meter of width flows down a spillway onto a horizontal floor and the velocity is 20 m/sec, determine (a) the downstream depth required to cause a hydraulic jump, (b) the loss in energy head, and (c) the losses in power by the jump per meter of width.
