Abstract: | Flow visualization and hot-wire measurement techniques were combined to Investigate the influence of the size and number of tabs on jet flow field and vortex structure generation mechanism. Stream wise vortices generated by the tabs of different sizes and numbers were observed from the flow visualization images. Combined with flow visualization, hot-wire measurement gave a quantitative insight of the effect of various tabbed jet flows. Instantaneous two-component velocity signals (longitudinal and transverse velocity components) at different cross sections along radius direction and stream wise direction with different tabbed jet nozzles were measured using hot-wire anemometer. Average flow field parameters of tabbed jet flow such as mean velocity, turbulence intensity, vorticity were analyzed and the effects of tabs with different sizes and numbers were compared with that of circular no-tab jet flow. It is revealed that the generation of a series of counter-rotating quasi-stream wise vortices, azimuthal vortices and double-row azimuthal vortex are the reasons for mixing enhancement of tabbed turbulent jet flow. |
