Underexpanded jets are present in various engineering applications; in recent years, they have gained special attention because of the development of gas-fueled propulsion systems. In these apparatuses, the direct injection of fuels such as…
The twin-nozzle jet in crossflow is a canonical flow structure in various engineering equipment, yet there are limited detailed studies focusing on its dynamical characteristics. In this study, the flow field of a twin-nozzle jet in…
This study experimentally examines the impact of spacing between two pulsed jets and their strengths on the fluid dynamics within an elastic hemispherical cavity. Such interactions between multiple pulsed jets are observed in various…
It has been widely accepted that nozzle exit over-pressure is responsible for thrust augmentation in starting jets over steady jets and a few pulsed jet propulsion systems have been developed based on this finding. However, no other study…
Electroaerodynamic (EAD) propulsion, where thrust is produced by collisions between electrostatically-accelerated ions and neutral air, is a potentially transformative method for indoor flight owing to its silent and solid-state nature.…
Astrophysical jets are often observed as bent or curved structures. We also know that the different jet sources may be binary in nature, which may lead to a regular, periodic motion of the jet nozzle, an orbital motion or precession. Here,…
In this letter, the merging-vs-bouncing response of obliquely-oriented colliding jets under elevated and reduced gaseous environment pressures was experimentally examined. Experiments with water and n-tetradecane confirmed that the…
Relativistic jets from (supermassive) black holes are typically observed in non-thermal emission, caused by highly-relativistic electrons. Here, we study the interrelation between three-dimensional (special) relativistic…
The relationship between magnetic reconnection and plasma turbulence is investigated using multipoint in-situ measurements from the Cluster spacecraft within a high-speed reconnection jet in the terrestrial magnetotail. We show explicitly…
We investigate the feedback of the stellar jets on the surrounding interstellar gas based on 2D and 3D simulations applying HD and MHD module of PLUTO 4.2 code. The main question we address is whether the stellar jet can be considered as a…
Inspired by the natural motion of insects, fish, and other animals, flapping airfoils have gained significant importance due to their applications in fields such as ship propulsion, micro aerial vehicles, and autonomous underwater vehicles.…
The amount of air entrained by vertical water jets impacting a large pool is revisited. To test available phenomenological models, new data on the jet deformation at impact and on the entrained air flow rate were collected both on a…
In this study, we present two and three-dimensional numerical investigation to understand the combined effects of the non-dimensional heave amplitude varying from 0 to 1 and the pitch amplitude ranging from 0 to 30 on the propulsive…
Velocity profiles and wall shear stress values in the wall jet region of planar underexpanded impinging jets are parameterized based on nozzle parameters (stand-off height, jet hydraulic diameter, and nozzle pressure ratio). Computational…
The interaction of trailing and leading vortex structures in low Reynolds number forced (varicose) jet with coflow is studied using Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS), where we report the dynamics of these vortices for a range of varying…
A novel jet-stirred combustion chamber is designed to study turbulent premixed flames. In the new approach, multiple impinging turbulent jets are used to stir the mixture. It is well known that pair of counterflowing turbulent jets produces…
We present three dimensional relativistic hydrodynamical simulations of a precessing jet interacting with the intracluster medium and compare the simulated jet structure with the observed structure of the Hydra A northern jet. For the…
We have performed 2D hydrodynamic simulations of a pulsed astrophysical jet propagating through a medium that is populated with spherical inhomogeneities, or "clumps," which are smaller than the jet radius. The clumps are seen to affect the…
Buoyancy effects and nozzle geometry can have a significant impact on turbulent jet dispersion. This work was motivated by applications involving hydrogen. Using helium as an experimental proxy, buoyant horizontal jets issuing from a round…
We study experimentally and theoretically mixing at the external boundary of a submerged turbulent jet. In the experimental study we use Particle Image Velocimetry and an Image Processing Technique based on the analysis of the intensity of…
