In this study, the main properties of the hydraulic jump in an asymmetric trapezoidal flume are analyzed experimentally, including the so-called sequent depths, characteristic lengths, and efficiency. In particular, an asymmetric trapezoidal flume with a length of 7 m and a width of 0.304 m is considered, with the bottom of the flume transversely inclined at an angle of m = 0.296 and vertical lateral sides. The corresponding inflow Froude number is allowed to range in the interval (1.40 < F1 < 6.11). The properties of this jump are compared to those of hydraulic jumps in channels with other types of cross-sections. A relationship for calculating hydraulic jump efficiency is proposed for the considered flume. For F1 > 5, the hydraulic jump is found to be more effective than that occurring in triangular and symmetric trapezoidal channels. Also, when
