| Abstract | Characteristics of a radial wall jet and a circular hydraulic
jump created by the radial flow of a circular jet spreads as a thin
layer on a smooth flat plate were studied. The characteristics being considered were: the laminar and turbulent flow profiles, variation of free surface velocity, energy and momentum coefficient, boundary layer
development, momentum equation and energy dissipation of the circular hydraulic jump, length, height and location of the jump in term of pertinent dimensionless parameters. The analysis of the radial wall jet
was made using the boundary layer theory of an axisymmetric flow. Experiments were conducted to verify the theoretical equations |
