Abstract
Inclined buoyant jets performance from the room-air-distribution viewpoint can be defined by the path, together with centerline velocity and temperature-difference. This paper presents nomograms valid for computing these values. The theoretical basis for the present work lies in the model, applied by Koestel for horizontal buoyant jets, which includes following assumptions. A velocity and temperature difference profiles are presented by a normal probability curve. The expansion rates for the velocity and temperature profiles are constant, and the ratio of the expansion rates of the velocity and temperature profiles is constant.
