Outline Page for CEE 5384: Hydraulic Jump in Kitchen Sink
Introduction
 * Define hydraulic jump
 * Describe a hydraulic jump in a kitchen sink
 * circular hydraulic jump
 * Describe other hydraulic jumps
 * man-made hydraulic jumps created by weirs or sluice gates
 * Explain that to produce equations describing jumps, one must apply conservation of momentum because energy loss is unknown

Derivation of a formula for a momentum conserving hydraulic jump in a kitchen sink
 * Define momentum
 * Define conjugate depths
 * Define variables
 * discharge
 * radius at which jump occurs
 * depths upstream and downstream of the jump (conjugate depths)
 * Derive relationship as a function of the variables

Examples
 * Assume three different faucet discharges and solve equation derived above
 * Actually experiment with the solved equation
 * list materials
 * present measurements
 * estimate error or uncertainty with measurements
 * Show that equations are valid given the measurements
 * Discuss what measurements are the most uncertain and comment on the precision needed to show that the equation derived is valid to two significant figures
