Hydraulic jump is a phenomenon caused by change in flow from super-critical to sub-critical flow with considerable energy dissipation and rise in depth of flow. This paper presents the results of experimental investigations to control the hydraulic jump by providing the abrupt rise (hump) at the bed of rectangular open channel. Various types of humps were designed and fabricated based on the critical velocity analysis for the maximum discharge in the flume. These humps were placed in flume at different positions from the upstream gate to control the hydraulic jump at the downstream. From the experimental results a new relationship is proposed to control the hydraulic jump at a specified location using the hump in the bed. This gives the economical solution in agricultural field which is one of the major contributions towards the society as well as it also gives technical inputs to the researchers in the field of same research. I. INTRODUCTION A hydraulic jump is a phenomenon which has extensively been studied in the field of hydraulic engineering due to its frequent occurrence in open channel flow such as rivers and spillways. When the rapid change in the depth of flow from a low stage to high stage, the result is usually in the form of an abrupt rise at water surface, this local phenomenon is known as Hydraulic jump. By utilizing characteristics, hydraulic jump is immensely used as an energy dissipater to dissipate the excess energy of flowing water at the downstream of hydraulic structures such as spillways and sluice gates, to recover head or rise the in water level on the downstream side and thus maintain high water level in the channel for irrigation or other water distribution purposes. It is useful for increasing weight on an apron to reduce the uplift pressure under a masonry structure by raising the water depth on the apron, to increase the discharge of a sluice by holding back the tail water, to indicate special conditions of supercritical flow and of control section to decide the perfect location of gauging station, for mixing of chemicals, to remove air pockets from water supply line and to prevent water locking etc. Due to these many practical applications, hydraulic jump is an interesting topic that has caught the imagination of many researchersin 18 th century who had done the first experimental investigation of jump to till date. But the control of the jump and its location to serve all these above mentioned uses is the foremost important task for the investigators. The hydraulic jump can be controlled or affected by the number of appurtenances as baffle blocks, sills, weirs, abrupt rise and drop in the channels. As the flow in the vicinity of these appurtenances is rapidly varied, the velocity distribution is not uniform. And it is difficult to apply the momentum equation to analyze accurately the formation of jump only by means of theoretical basis; therefore for useful design information one has to rely on the experimental investigations [1]. The researchers had done laboratory experiments to develop empirical relations for universal applications and model studies were conducted for specific projects. In the 20 th century,many researchershave done experiments on hydraulic jump, amongst them one has done model study with dual spillway [2], one of them had thrown a light on the impact of hydraulic jump [3] and few from the current era; in 2005 one had studied the jump on rough bed [4], in 2011 researcher noticed
The hydraulic relationships of flow through notches of different common shapes were investigated in this study. The hydraulic performance of notches were carried out experimentally, by using eight models, the effect of various shapes of notches to specify a range of hydraulic parameters such as coefficient of discharge C d , energy dissipation ratio E%, and self-aeration of notch AE%. The experimental results of this study showed that the dissipation energy corresponding to V-notches is larger than resulted from rectangular notches. For compound notches of rectangular and triangle, a turbulence in flow increases as the angle of lower notch decreases. Thus, this type with (=120 ) is the most efficient between the studied models, which gives dissipation of flow energy ratio of (35.86%) for strong hydraulic jump, and (20.7%) for steady jump type. In addition, this type improved the self-aeration of flow given by (%), a percent of 35.53 is measured. This work also reveal that length of roller and the length of hydraulic jump were directly proportional to the angle of compound notch. Depending on statistical basis, this study derived set of empirical relationships to estimate coefficient of discharge, energy dissipation ratio, and reduction of hydraulic jump length ratio with acceptable values of coefficient of determination.

The paper presents the results of an experimental study carried out to investigate the effect of geometric and hydraulic parameters on energy dissipation and location of the hydraulic jump, with a change in the height of roughness elements and the divergence of walls in different discharges. Experiments were conducted in a horizontal rectangular basin with gradual expansion 0.5 m wide and 10 m long. Four physical models were fixed in the flume. The measured characteristics of the hydraulic jump with different divergences ratio (B = b 1 /b 2 = 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1) and the inflow Froude numbers (6 < Fr 1 < 12) were compared with each other and with the corresponding values measured for the classical hydraulic jump. The results showed that the tailwater depth required to form a hydraulic jump and also the roller length of the hydraulic jump and the length of the hydraulic jump on a gradual expansion basin with the rough bed were appreciably smaller than that of the corresponding hydraulic jumps in a rectangular basin with smooth and rough bed. With the experimental data, empirical formulae were developed to express the hydraulic jump characteristics relating to roughness elements height and divergence ratio of wall. Also, the applicability of some empirical relationships for estimating the roller length was tested.
