Abstract:

This work investigated the fluid mechanics of impinging jet flows and to this end a combined theoretical, computational and experimental study was initiated. A very detailed set of experimental results for multiple impinging jets in a crossflow is available. The theoretical and computational study is concerned partly with modeling of the turbulence. An important result is that it appears that even the most sophisticated turbulence model available will not reproduce the experimental results adequately.
