Turbulent jets with off-source heating
Aspden, AJ; Nikiforakis, Nikolaos; Bell, JB; Dalziel, Stuart Bruce (Cambridge University PressJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 2017-08-10)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 ...
