The experimental study has been conducted to investigate the characteristics of the turbulent jet with control flow in the liquid fluid amplifier. The dimensions of the fluidic element used are: aspect ratio=1.9, main nozzle width
bm(=control nozzle width
bc)=10mm, offset=(0∼3)×
bm (variable) and side wall angle=0∼30° (variable). The operating liquid is water of about 20°C.
In order to analyze the jet behavior in various jet velocities
vm'
s (2∼6m/s), dimensionless control flow rates
Qc/Qm(-0.25∼+0.35), various side wall angles and offsets, the flow patterns of the attached jet are visualized by air bubble tracer and slitted ray. Static pressure distributions are also measured.
The following results of the experimental study are obtained: (1) the center stream line of main jet, the attachment stream line and the static pressure distribution are acquired in various conditions. (2) In the inner region of the vortex, the isobaric curves are almost circular and their distributions are squarely proportional to the radial distance from the vortex center. The relation mentioned above holds good in various control flow rates. (3) In the case that the main and control jets are fully developing turbulent flow, the attachment distance is the function of only
Qc/Qm and independent of
vm. (4) A bulge-walled element (in which the side walls form the same shape as the attachment stream line) and a straight-walled element are compared and their output total pressure distributions are discussed on the basis of measurement.
