Hydraulic Jump Calculator

Compute sequent depth, energy loss, and Froude number for a hydraulic jump in an open channel. Used by hydraulic engineers to design stilling basins and dissipate kinetic energy in spillways.

Fluid Mechanics

Reynolds Number Calculator

Compute the Reynolds number to determine whether pipe or channel flow is laminar, transitional, or turbulent. Useful for selecting friction-factor correlations, sizing pipes, and predicting heat-transfer or mixing behavior.

Flow Velocity (m/s)

Pipe Diameter (m)

Kinematic Viscosity (m²/s)
