We also observe hydraulic jumps in atmospheric science. They often happen downstream of mountain rages when mountain waves break. Super critical flow trapped above an inversion layer can transition to sub critical and cause deep mixing of the boundary layer. This mixing transports high winds to the surface in addition to the turbulence being induced by the terrain. This can lead to intense downslope windstorms also called chinook or fohn winds. Where I work in Wyoming, we often see wave breaks and hydraulic jumps produce damaging wind gusts over 100 mph.

@trucid2 Wave speed is just the speed at which a longitudinal wave (such as sound) travels through a fluid. This speed is generally constant for a fluid. What changes is the speed at which the fluid itself is flowing. So if air were moving very quickly at a place and then coming to an abrupt halt, that place would have a hydraulic jump of air.

I'm a contractor. My current job is replacing a hot tub built into a basement remodel thirty years ago. With no room to bring in a new hot tub I suggested a whirlpool bath, an idea the client accepted. The biggest problem was that the hot tub had no drain, water was pumped into the adjacent shower pan when it needed to be refreshed. To overcome this I built a platform with the drain running between it and the concrete floor, through the shower wall, over the top of the existing shower pan. I was worried about water velocity because of the 20" head pressure. The drain leaves the tub with 1.5" PVC into a trap then travels at a gentle slope, 1/2" in four feet. As it enters the wall it steps up to 2" then flows out of a 3" shower pan drain with grill that is acting in reverse, water coming out horizontally instead of entering vertically. The volume is very impressive as is the sound. It is dispersed enough that it does not splash excessively, I think the grill helps a lot. I was quite pleased. Here is what I did not expect. The flow from the 1.5" pipe overwhelms the 2" shower drain. Water depth in the pan gradually increases to about 3", near overflow. Then the most remarkable phenomenon and the reason I write. A tremendous whirlpool is created at the drain, 3" deep 2" diameter. No water goes down the center of the drain. By coincidence I am reading a book "The Science of Leonardo". He would have loved it. With the ceiling light of the shower shining through the turbulence the patterns are stable and clear. I will cut a rubber washer to insert under the "popup" to reduce the flow. I think that will do the trick. We'll see. Thanks for your excellent videos.

In the process of researching the failure of the Oroville dam's main spillway in 2017, I read up on the earlier 2009 failure of their River Valve Outlet System, which involved a hydraulic jump. Their RVOS pulls water from the lowest/coldest point of the reservoir where it flows through a tunnel to a point under the dam near the turbine outlets (head pressure at about 300psi), and then can be released through a cone valve into another long tunnel that is joined by water from the turbine outlets (the tailrace). RVOS is designed to maintain minimum flow in the river when the reservoir drops below the turbine inlets and to regulate temperature for fish in the river. Oroville's Hyatt power plant is a pumping power station so the turbine outlets are submerged in their own trailrace which can either flow out into the Thermalito Diversion Pool, or pull water back from it when the turbines run as pumps. The tailrace consists of two 35ft diameter, 2000ft long tunnels. One is fully submerged, the other half full and they're cross joined. RVOS cone valves output into the half full tunnel at *extremely* high pressures and flow rates. Normally it blasts the water onto an angled steel dispersion ring which absorbs the high velocity flow from the valves, to merge it more smoothly with the low velocity flow of the half filled tunnel. The ring had been damaged due to many years of use so earlier in 2009, they removed it.. (presumably with intent to replace). Then a few months later management thought it would be interesting to conduct a test to open the RVOS valve to 100% to see what effect it would have (1. they'd been told never to run it at 100% due to prior damage 2. design specs said RVOS was never to be operated without dispersion ring). The manually operated control (just a big wheel) for the RVOS cone valve sits in a chamber connected through a long person tunnel up into the inner turbine room, and that chamber is separated from the ring valve outlet by a fully sealed 20ft tall steel wall. That wall was designed to fail with 15ft of head pressure behind it in the unlikely event that the manual control valve failed and let water into that chamber. This wall failure would prevent water from backing up the person tunnel into the turbine room. So.. 5 people enter the control room, and start to open the RVOS valve up to 100%. At 85% all hell breaks loose. The valves release about 4-5K CFS of water at extremely high velocity into a half filled tunnel, and without the dispersion ring this accelerates the velocity of the water in the tunnel for a few hundred feet. During original design (including extensive small scale testing), they realized that even with the dispersion ring a hydraulic jump could form as high velocity flow meets low, that might reach up to the roof of the tunnel, which could cause a vacuum condition in the tunnel upstream of the jump. So they built in a vent in the roof several hundred feet down the tunnel connected by a large tube running back to another vent in the cone valves outlet chamber. Idea being that if the jump formed between the two vents sealing the tunnel it could still equalize the air pressure on either side of it. But without the dispersion ring in place, the jump moved much further down the tunnel than design called for, and blocked the lower vent. This caused a siphon pump effect back to the valve outlet chamber, eventually causing high enough vacuum that the steel wall designed to hold back 15ft of water, blew out into the tunnel almost taking the 5 people in that chamber with it. Doors further up the man tunnel also failed and debris was sucked down that tunnel pelting the people in the chamber now open to raging water and continuing vacuum. With hurricane force winds coming from the person tunnel through the chamber into the RVOS outlet someone managed to turn off the valve to stop the flow. One person was seriously injured. RVOS was repaired in 2014, and operated again that year when drought conditions dropped the reservoir below the turbine inlets.

Really nice explanation of the jump. I 'm an engineer for NJ and our erosion control program (urban; construction, storm water etc) deals with scour protection all the time. I'm going to forward a link to your video to our soil conservation districts for them to watch!

When you see ocean waves coming on shore and then retreating, you can see a 'battle' between the receding and approaching waves, as mentioned in the video. Is that also a hydraulic jump? If yes, which is the tranquil bit and which is the fast bit?

It starts out fascinating, but wait for what happens after the cameraman zooms onto the stairwell a couple minutes in: kzread.info/dash/bejne/mH6KpM6hl9efmps.html It's during a regular test that shuts a valve near the turbine and what you see is holding tank to prevent a water hammer (which can cause damage to the water tunnels) from forming when the water tunnels to the turbine are closed. The uploader works at that dam, so check out his other videos, including down that hole on the right and a device (located up the incline) that is lowered down it to remove/replace the turbine blades.

Thanks, you've got an absolute gift for explaining engineering theory clearly and concisely.
