| Abstract: | Turbulent jets are encountered in several
practical applications in a large number of fields of engineering. Selected
literature on incompressible turbulent plane and round jets in quiescent
ambient has been reported in the present paper. These are classified as
experimental and numerical works. One objective of the present survey is to
report important flow features of incompressible turbulent jets observed by
several researchers over a period of four decades. Experimental investigations
of important flow properties of both types of jets, such as time-averaged
velocity profiles, turbulent stresses, intermittency, growth rates, entrainment
and role of coherent structures, transport of heat and passive scalar, higher
order moments under a wide range of flow conditions have been reported.
Performance and other issues of different turbulence models (both standard
versions and modified versions to account for different effects) have also been
discussed. Some important literature on large eddy simulations and direct
numerical simulations of these flows has also been reported. Important
observations from the literature survey have been summarized. |
