TURBULENT JET ATTACHMENT TO CONVEX WALLS.

Abstract

The effect of geometry and Reynolds number on the attachment and separation of a fluid jet flowing over a convex wall are experimentally determined. The results are presented in terms of normalized parameters in a form suitable for comparison with theoretical results. Reasonably good agreement is obtained between the experimental results and those predicted theoretically by Gortler and Glauert, particularly for regions of flow away from the control port. The effects of the wall setback and control port are most pronounced in a region near the power nozzle. (Author)
