| Abstract: | A complete system of equations determining a viscous laminar, strongly overexpanded jet is obtained; the system is formed by shortened Navier—Stokes equations, equations for the metric of a coordinate system related with the form of the jet, and equations of transition from curvilinear coordinates to Cartesian. The problem of calculating the jet is formulated as a Cauchy problem for this system. Two- and three-dimensional flows are examined. Possible swirling of the jet is taken into account.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 2, pp. 137–147, March–April, 1977. |
