Computation Of Flow Fields Due To Single- And Twin-Jet Impingement, Xiang Zhang
Computation Of Flow Fields Due To Single- And Twin-Jet Impingement, Xiang Zhang
McKelvey School of Engineering Theses & Dissertations
The thesis consists of two parts. The first part focuses on numerical simulations and their comparison with experimental data for single-jet impingement on ground. Angles between the axisymmetric jet and impingement surface considered are 15, 30 and 90 degree. It is shown that both the k-epsilon and Wray-Agarwal (WA) model can predict the flow fields in good agreement with the experimental results. The second part extends the first part to twin-jet normal impingement on the ground. It focuses on numerical simulation of fountains formed by the twin-jet impingement. The fountains can be normal straight upward when the two jets are …
