Abstract
A study is made of the exhausting of a jet of viscous gas from a cylindrical channel into vacuum in the presence of a flat bounding surface outside the channel in the plane of its exit section. The problem is solved numerically using the complete system of Navier—Stokes equations. The developed flow model makes it possible to take into account the influence of an external medium into which the jet exhausts on the structure of the flow in the exit section of the channel, and also the influence of the subsonic part of the boundary layer in the channel on the flow field of the jet.
