Abstract | ||
A turbulent non-symmetrical and multiple normal jets through flow in sudden enlargement square duct is studied experimentally. The geometry of the enlargement is a duct with an area ratio of ( AR= 5.09). The effect of jets location , number of jets , inlet Reynolds number as well as the injection ratio on the pressure recovery coefficient are investigated .The inlet Reynolds number ( Rein ), injection flow rate ratio (©) and the dimensionless downstream distance (X) are chosen to cover the following range. 5.3 x 104 < Rein = 10.7 x 104, 0.0 < © < 0.478 and 0.64 < X < 1.75. The experimental results show that, sleight change of the injection ratio, inlet Reynolds number or number of jets has an important effect on pressure recovery coefficient , interaction between main and injected flow and also the recirculation zone | ||
