Abstract:

The main purpose of the studies on transverse jets is to define the mixing processes in transverse jets and their relation to the vortical structure of the jet. Both near field and far field and the relation of the latter to the former are of interest. To study the near field of the transverse jet a new apparatus has been constructed. This consists of a jet, 1.5 inches in diameter, discharging into an open-circuit wind tunnel with 20 in square test section. In this setup, smoke wires can be effectively used to visualize various planes of flow either inside or outside the jet. Author
