Useful Help Files:
Summary Table of Important Open Channel Flow Relationships
Matlab Animation of Sluice Gate - Hydraulic Jump Flow Pattern - Directions:
Download scripts:
gatejump.m:
Matlab script that animates sluice gate - hydraulic jump flow pattern
plotgate.m:
Matlab function that plots the moving gate for animation
Start Matlab and change Matlab directory to location (path) where scripts have been downloaded (use >> cd [pathname]).
Type "gatejump" at Matlab prompt(">>"). You will see the animation once.
Type "help gatejump" at the Matlab prompt to learn more about the animation.
Type "movie(M, 1000, 10) at the Matlab prompt to see animation repeatedly. Changing the "10" increases/decreases movie speed.
