  2. Hydraulic jumps in rectangular channels - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_Jumps_in...

    Hydraulic jump in a rectangular channel, also known as classical jump, is a natural phenomenon that occurs whenever flow changes from supercritical to subcritical flow. In this transition, the water surface rises abruptly, surface rollers are formed, intense mixing occurs, air is entrained, and often a large amount of energy is dissipated.

  3. Parshall flume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parshall_flume

    An illustration exists of a unitless E – Y diagram and how Energy and depth of flow change throughout a Parshall Flume. The two blue lines represent the q values, q 1 for the flow before the constriction, and q 2 representing the value at the constriction (q = Q/b = ft 2 /s, or flow over width in a

  4. Mixer-settler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixer-settler

    The height of the heavy phase weir can be adjusted in order to position the heavy/light interphase in the settling chamber based on the density of each one of the phases. The settler is a calm pool downstream of the mixer where the liquids are allowed to separate by gravity.

  5. Nicolson–Ross–Weir method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicolson–Ross–Weir_method

    The method uses scattering parameters of a material sample embedded in a waveguide, namely and , to calculate permittivity and permeability data. and correspond to the cumulative reflection and transmission coefficient of the sample that are referenced to the each sample end, respectively: these parameters account for the multiple internal reflections inside the sample, which is considered to ...

  6. Open-channel flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-channel_flow

    The depth changes abruptly over a comparatively short distance. Rapidly varied flow is known as a local phenomenon. Examples are the hydraulic jump and the hydraulic drop. Gradually-varied flow. The depth changes over a long distance. Continuous flow. The discharge is constant throughout the reach of the channel under consideration. This is ...

  7. Dia (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dia_(software)

    Dia has special objects to help draw entity-relationship models, Unified Modeling Language (UML) diagrams, flowcharts, network diagrams, and simple electrical circuits. It is also possible to add support for new shapes by writing simple XML files, using a subset of Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) to draw the shape.

  8. Hydraulic jump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_jump

    Figure 4: An undular front on a tidal bore. At this point the water is relatively deep and the fractional change in elevation is small. A tidal bore is a hydraulic jump which occurs when the incoming tide forms a wave (or waves) of water that travel up a river or narrow bay against the direction of the current. [16]

  9. Hydraulic structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_structure

    They can be used to divert, disrupt or completely stop the flow. An example of a hydraulic structure would be a dam, which slows the normal flow rate of the river in order to power turbines. A hydraulic structure can be built in rivers, a sea, or any body of water where there is a need for a change in the natural flow of water. [1]
