Analysis of the Internal Flow of the Fluid Amplifier with the Splitter Only, by the Conformal Mapping

Abstract

Concerning the internal flow of the reattaching side of the fluid amplifier with the splitter only, by the conformal mapping, the theoretical analysis has been performed in the followings, applying the potential flow theory:
(1) approximately replacing the side wall of the splitter with the finite number of vortex, placed in the same intervals.
(2) placing a vortex near the side wall, to obtain the reattaching phenomenon.
By this analysis, the approximate solution of the stream line and the pressure distribution have been able to obtain. Experimental values of the reattaching stream line and the pressure distribution were examined with the theoretical values of this analysis.
