When a solid boundary deforms rapidly into a quiescent liquid layer, a flow is in- duced that can lead to jet formation. An asymptotic analytical solution is presented for this flow, driven by a solid boundary deforming ...

Experimental measurements of entrainment by turbulent fountains from circular sources in quiescent uniform environments are presented. Our results span almost four orders of magnitude in the source Froude number (0.004 ≤ ...

Motivated by anomalous entrainment behaviour in cumulus clouds, Bhat et al. (Exp. Fluids, vol. 7, 1989, pp. 99–102) pioneered a laboratory experiment to study turbulent jets subjected to a volumetric heating away from the ...
