The objective of this study is to determine the effect of different roughness types and arrangements on hydraulic jump characteristics in a rectangular channel. Three different types of roughness were used along experiments. All of them had rectangular prism shapes and that were placed normal to the flow direction. To avoid cavitation, height of roughness elements were arranged according to level of the channel inlet, so that the crests of roughness elements would not be protruding into the flow. The effects of roughness type and arrangement on hydraulic jump properties, i.e. energy dissipation, length of the jump and tail water depth were investigated. These properties were compared with the available data in literature and with the properties of hydraulic jump occurred on smooth bed.
