Abstract
Based on a large number of experiments, a simple formula is developed for the time-averaged free surface profile of a classical hydraulic jump. This novel approach is based on the length of the roller. The resulting surface profile fits the data well for usual inflow Froude numbers in the range of 2 to 10. Key words: backwater, channel flow, hydraulics, open channel, surface profile.
