Abstract

The present work attempts to investigate the effects of jet obliquity on the spatial patterns formed as a consequence of hydraulic jumps due to the impingement of circular liquid jets on continuously moving but nonaccelerating horizontal flat plates. Both the normal and the oblique impinging jets are considered, in order to characterize the contrasting features of the associated hydraulic jump mechanisms. Theoretical calculations are executed to obtain the locations of the jump, for different jet and plate velocities and jet inclination angles, using a depth-averaged momentum integral equation for shallow-free surface flows. Comparisons are subsequently made between the theoretical predictions and experimental observations reported in the literature, and a good agreement between these two can be observed. Special cases of a circular hydraulic jump when the target plate is stationary and the impinging jet is vertical, and elliptic hydraulic jumps when the target plate is stationary and the impinging jet is obliquely inclined, are also discussed. It is conjectured that flow due to impinging jets on a horizontal moving plate can be modeled as an equivalent flow due to an inclined impinging jet on stationary horizontal flat plates, with appropriate alterations in the jet velocity and the jet inclination angles.
