An Investigation of the Near Noise Fields of a Choked Axisymmetric Air Jet

摘要

An experimental investigation was completed of the near sound field of a choked axisymmetric air jet of 2.25-in diameter. The results include surveys of the sound pressure levels in the area surrounding the jet and the identification of various screech frequencies. A schlieren system with stroboscopic spark synchronisation was used to photograph an axisymmetric mode and a spiralling mode of the jet oscillations. (Author)
