We study the hydrodynamic and acoustic fields of turbulent jets issuing from nozzles modified by the addition of cylindrical tabs on the inner surface, one diameter upstream of the exit. The tabs are designed to promote significant growth…
In this paper, we report experimental investigation to improve the shape of a supersonic nozzle for rarefied flows to generate high axial density at extended distances from the nozzle. The reported work is significant for molecular jet/beam…
The present work reports an investigation into the statistical properties of wall-pressure fluctuations in a highly over-expanded nozzle flow, characterized by significant shock-induced flow separation. This regime is extremely hazardous to…
We experimentally investigate a partially shrouded sonic jet (a sonic free-jet shielded by a solid wall-extension on one side) exiting from a planar nozzle at two different nozzle pressure ratio ($\zeta=4$ and $5$). We experimentally show…
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…
We study a turbulent jet issuing from a cylindrical nozzle to characterise coherent structures evolving in the turbulent boundary layer. The analysis is performed using data from a large-eddy simulation of a Mach 0.4 jet. Azimuthal…
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…
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…
An experiment is conducted to investigate the effects of chevrons on installed subsonic jet noise at a Mach number of 0.5 using the NASA SMC000 (round) and SMC006 (chevron) nozzles. The jets are of a diameter D=16.93 mm and placed near a…
This study concerns a turbulent jet at Mach number $M_j=0.9$, subject to a uniform external flow stream at $M_f=0.15$. We assess the mechanisms that underpin the reduction in fluctuation energy that is known to occur when a jet is…
In the present study, a computation study is performed to investigate the effect of imposed oscillation of nozzle pressure ratio (NPR) on the flow structure in a two-dimensional, axisymmetric supersonic converging nozzle. In this study, the…
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,…
Nominal two-dimensional (2D) shear layers have been studied extensively, and their principal dynamics are well understood. In practical configurations, however, the behavior of such shear layers is affected by proximal surfaces. In this…
We study coherent structures in subsonic turbulent jets subject to a flight stream. A thorough characterisation of the effects of a flight stream on the turbulent field was recently performed by Maia et al. (2023) and fluctuation energy…
Experiments and numerical simulations were conducted to investigate the dispersion of turbulent jets issuing from realistic pipe geometries. The effect of jet densities and Reynolds numbers on vertical buoyant jets were investigated, as…
An overexpanded jet in a truncated ideally contoured nozzle is found to feature a tonal behavior. The flow field is investigated to understand its origin and show how it modifies side-load properties. The temporal and spatial organization…
This work aims to provide a more complete understanding of the resonance mechanisms that occur in turbulent jets at high subsonic Mach number, as shown by Towne et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 825, 2017, pp. 1113-1152). Resonance was suggested…
In light of recent renewed interest in streaks in turbulent jets, the current work explores their coexistence with vortex rings in the near field of turbulent round jets. A Reynolds number, $Re=1.5 \times 10^5$ jet is studied at two…
Inspired by cephalopod jet propulsion through compliant funnels, this study investigates elastic wave propagation and energy exchange in passively deforming cylindrical nozzles through three-dimensional, two-way fluid-structure interaction…
The performance of convergent and divergent nozzles is critical in aerospace propulsion systems, where the efficient expansion of high-temperature, high-pressure gases directly impacts thrust generation. In this study, we investigate a…
