Effect of Acoustic Field on the Structure of a Round Minijet

Abstract

Presented are results of visual studying the structure of a round minijet flowing into the atmosphere exposed to an acoustic field. The studies were performed with the laminar jet flow. According to the photo and video recording of the flow pattern we revealed characteristic features of the jet structure in the acoustic field. Characteristic vortex structures and zones with intensive turbulent mixing were detected in the flow.We revealed the process of formation of vortex structures in a laminar jet under the action of the acoustic field, vibrational and rotational jet flows at the outlet of the pipe 1.35 mm in diameter. The present study is a continuation of the research on a minijet structure in an acoustic field [13].
