Abstract

The trajectories and decay of the maximum velocity for turbulent jets in a cross flow were simulated by means of the κ — ϵ two-equation turbulence model in which differential equations were solved for the kinetic energy of turbulence and for the rate of its dissipation. The solution procedure employed an elliptic finite-difference scheme with the three velocity components and the pressure as the main dependent variables. The essential properties of the jet were discussed in the case of different ratios of the rectangular orifice length to the width H/B, ratios of the jet injected velocity to the main stream velocity R; and different injection angles α. The numerical prediction results were presented in the form of equivalent diameter. Lastly, two correlation equations were obtained and the numerical predictions are shown to agree well with the experimental data.
