Note that the graphs are not maximum values but have the mean fluctuation of pressure, <br />The standard deviation of the fluctuations are also indicated, from which the recommended Cp'""", <br />values were derived, <br /> <br />TABLE 1-1 <br />NOMINAL LIMIT OF MAXIMUM PRESSURE FLUCTUATIONS <br />(Adapted from Toso, 1986) <br /> <br />Jump <br />Condition <br /> <br />Froude Suggested <br />Number Maximum Cp <br />3,0 1.0 <br />3,8 0,7 <br />3.3 0,8" <br />5.0 0,7 <br />5,0 1.0 <br /> <br />O' Slope, Developed Inflow (boundary layer at surface) <br />30' Slope, Toe ofJump at Base of Chute" <br />30' Slope, Toe of Jump on Chute <br /> <br />30' Slope for USBR Basin II <br />30' Slope for USBR Basin III <br /> <br />"Velocity head increased by elevation difference between top of jump and basin floor. <br /> <br />Figure 1-1 illustrates positive and negative pressure fluctuations coefficient, Cp' with respect to <br />location where the jump begins at the toe, Figure 1-2 presents the positive pressure fluctuation where <br />the jump begins on the face slope, Figure 1-3 illustrates how the pressure fluctuation can vary <br />remarkably in USBR Basins II or III. <br /> <br />1-3 <br />
