On the Diffusion of Heated Jets

Pages 378-383 | Received 13 Oct 1956, Published online: 15 Dec 2016
 

Abstract

A general expression is obtained for the propagation of a heated jet in a stagnant environment. It is shown that W. Schmidt's and Tollmien's solutions are contained in the general one.

A new cross-sectional velocity distribution is proposed which seems to be preferable above the generally accepted Gaussian distribution.
