Abstract
Accelerating the process of transition from supercritical to subcritical flow, by formation a forced hydraulic jump at the contract section (Forced perfect hydraulic jump), is one of the most important measures, in decreasing flow velocity, water energy dissipation and alleviation the scouring problem, leading to lessening the required protection length against the erosion issues in the bed of downstream of the channel. In the current study, physical model was prepared precisely at fluid mechanics laboratory in the faculty of Engineering/Alkhums at Elmergib University. Comprehensive experiments were conducted to evaluate measured and calculated characteristics of the perfect free jump, and consequently, the existence of the perfect hydraulic jump is investigated. Eventually, equation was derived that might be used to guarantee the existence of a free perfect jump, which is the limiting condition between both repelled and drowned jumps as well as, the limiting condition between both repelled and drowned jumps was graphically found.
