The physical model includes two scaled waterjets, with the jet orientation under control.
The number of dependencies can be reduced to two by help of non-dimensionalizing which yields the dimensionless drag force F in dependence on the jet orientation (tangent) and the dimensionless relative velocity between air flow and glass jet.
The Jet impingement or free surface flow can be classified according to jet orientation, surface type or flow type as vertical or horizontal, flat or curved, and single or two phase flow, respectively.
Observational data have been used to constrain the jet velocity and orientation.
The filters in each jet include 6 different orientations with a separation and band width of 30°, 5 different scales with a separation and band width of 1.4 octaves, and 2 different phases (even- and odd-symmetric) in all possible combinations.
The experiment is designed to measure the key parameters governing heat transfer augmentation by forced jets, and to investigate the effects of geometric factors, including the jet diameter, jet injection orientation, interior structures, and enclosure aspect ratio.
Simulations were conducted on two full-scale tank types (depth-to-diameter ratios) with different inlet orientations and inlet jet momentum.
For WT testing, unsteady pressure measurements were performed in an open jet WT for different telescope orientations and wind speeds, using a number of pressure taps distributed around the inner and the outer surfaces of the enclosure and on the primary mirror surface.
The effects of blade orientation angle and jet impact location on efficiency are also investigated and experimentally found to be of relatively little significance to the turbine.
A comparison of band dichroism in the transmission and attenuated total reflection infra-red spectra of poly phenyl-p-phenylene terepoly phenyl-p-phenyleneared by jet drawing, showed low molecular orientation in a surface layer of about 1 μm thickness.
