In this book, recent developments in our understanding of
fundamental vortex ring and jet dynamics will be discussed, with a
view to shed light upon their near-field behaviour which underpins
much of their far-field characteristics. The chapters provide
up-to-date research findings by their respective experts and seek
to link near-field flow physics of vortex ring and jet flows with
end-applications in mind. Over the past decade, our knowledge on
vortex ring and jet flows has grown by leaps and bounds, thanks to
increasing use of high-fidelity, high-accuracy experimental
techniques and numerical simulations. As such, we now have a much
better appreciation and understanding on the initiation and
near-field developments of vortex ring and jet flows under many
varied initial and boundary conditions. Chapter 1 outlines the
vortex ring pinch-off phenomenon and how it relates to the initial
stages of jet formations and subsequent jet behaviour, while
Chapter 2 takes a closer look at the behaviour resulting from
vortex ring impingement upon solid boundaries and how the use of a
porous surface alters the impingement process. Chapters 3 and 4
focus upon the formation of synthetic jets from vortex ring
structures experimentally and numerically, the challenges in
understanding the relationships between their generation parameters
and how they can be utilized in flow separation control problems.
Chapter 5 looks at the use of imposing selected nozzle
trailing-edge modifications to effect changes upon the near-field
dynamics associated with circular, noncircular and coaxial jets,
with a view to control their mixing behaviour. And last but not
least, Chapter 6 details the use of unique impinging jet
configurations and how they may lend themselves towards greater
understanding and operating efficacies in heat transfer problems.
This book will be useful to postgraduate students and researchers
alike who wish to get up to speed regarding the latest developments
in vortex ring and jet flow behaviour and how their interesting
flow dynamics may be put into good use in their intended
applications.
