Effect of mach number on wall pressure flow field for area ratio 2.56

This paper presents the experimental results on the flow characteristics of a suddenly expanded flow from the convergent nozzle for subsonic flow. In the present study micro jets were used to investigate the effect of micro jets on wall pressure flow field in the enlarged duct. Accordingly an active...

In the present study micro jets were used to investigate the effect of micro jets on wall pressure flow field in the enlarged duct. Accordingly an active control in the form of four micro jets of 1 mm orifice diameter located at 900 intervals along a pitch circle diameter of 1.3 times the nozzle exit diameter in the base region was employed.

The length-to-diameter (i.e. L/D) ratio of the sudden expansion duct was varied from 10 to 1. From the results, it is seen that the flow in the base region is dominated by the waves, the general perception what we have that correctly expanded flow will be from waves is proved to be wrong; also, it is found that for L/D in the range L/D = 10 and 8 the flow remains oscillatory mostly for all the Mach numbers.
