Abstract: The development of local scour holes downstream a hydraulic jump type flow in the passage of time shows certain geometrical similarities which may be expressed by relevant parameters. The present paper attempts to explain the similarity existing either in the process of scour or in the profiles that the scour holes follow downstream of hydraulic jump flow. The investigation was carried out using three geometrically similar models with geometrical scale progressing by a factor of two.
