Resulting Hydraulic Jump From Oscillatory Forces Acting on a Pipe

Date Issued:: 2015
Summary:: Within the framework of ongoing research studying the effects of oscillatory forces on pipe flow, an experiment was conducted to investigate the relationship between the nature of said forces and hydraulic jump resulting from the impact of the exiting flow onto an orthogonal surface. To this end, a reservoir supplying constant head and near-hydrostatic conditions was equipped with an exit fitting in its lower section. A section of PVC tubing extended vertically downward from this exit point and was straddled by a pair of dynamic loudspeakers placed opposite each other and connected to a receiver's inputs so as to play a signal of specified frequency. The resulting turbulent jet flow was then allowed to drop to a horizontal plate of circular shape. The outer lip of the plate triggered a circular hydraulic jump whose location was found to be directly dependent on the frequency of the forces exciting the flow.
