Centreline mixing characteristics of jets from nine differently shaped nozzles

Abstract

 The centreline mixing characteristics of jets from nozzles with nine different cross-sectional shapes are compared. It is shown that the breakdown of axisymmetry of the initial jet configuration generally results in increased mean-velocity decay and increased RMS fluctuations.
