▪ Abstract Noncircular jets have been the topic of extensive research in the last fifteen years.
These jets were identified as an efficient technique of passive flow control that allows …

'Chevrons', a sawtooth pattern on the trailing edge of exhaust nozzles, are being
implemented on modern jet engines. The technology reduces jet noise for 'separate …

Synthetic jet is a novel flow phenomenon potentially useful for cooling of electronic devices.
The heat transfer and acoustic characteristics of impinging synthetic jet are investigated …

CHEVRON nozzles represent the current state of the art in jet noise reduction technology for
application in medium to high bypass ratio turbofan engines. These nozzles feature …

This study provides an overview of the tab-controlled jets to understand and predict the
influence of mixing promoting vortices at speeds ranging from subsonic to supersonic. A …

DESIGN of large and fast jet-propelled aircraft and large booster rocket engines have
focused on noise problems. Difficulties in devising satisfactory solutions stem from the …

The formation and pinch-off of non-axisymmetric vortex rings is considered experimentally.
Vortex rings are generated using a non-circular piston–cylinder arrangement, and the …

The instability of rectangular jets is investigated using a vortex-sheet model. It is shown that
such jets support four linearly independent families of instability waves. Within each family …

An experimental investigation of a low aspect ratio rectangular nozzle's flow field was
completed. Over, ideally, and under expanded operating conditions were presented for …

The results of a continuing investigation on the effect of vortex generators, in the form of
small tabs at the nozzle exit, on the evolution of a jet are reported in this paper. Primarily …
