Abstract

In order to study the effect of wall on the flow pattern of a submerged turbulent water jet in narrow channels, the flow field was visualized by a laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) system at different Reynolds numbers. Those images showed that flow motion in a narrow channel is different from that of a turbulent plane jet without narrow channels. There are three flow patterns in narrow channels: stable impinging, stable jet with recirculation vortices and flapping turbulent jet.
