Investigation of the Structure and Characteristics of a Nonstationary Supersonic Gas Jet Produced By a Pulse Generator

  • Published:
Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

The initiation of a shock wave in the gas space of a pulse generator, the exit of this wave from the generator nozzle, and the formation of a nonstationary gas-jet flow downstream of the nozzle exit section were experimentally investigated and numerically simulated as applied to the installations for the gas-pulse cleaning of heat transfer surfaces. An experimental investigation of the structure of a nonstationary underexpanded supersonic gas jet discharging from the generator nozzle into an immersed space and propagating along a side screen modeling a heat transfer surface cleaned was performed on an air stand. The shock-wave and vortex structures of such a jet were numerically investigated in detail by the method used for the simulation of large vortices.
