The swirling radial jet

The similarity solution of the radial turbulent jet with weak swirl is discussed and a new solution of the radial turbulent jet with swirl is proposed without restrictions assumed in the weak swirl solution.Nomenclature e swirl parameter - k experimental constant - l non-negative constant - M, M, N, P integral invariants - q velocity component in -direction - q_max maximum velocity component in -direction - u radial velocity component - u_max maximum radial velocity component - v axial velocity component - w peripheral velocity component - w_max maximum peripheral velocity component - x radial coordinate - y transverse coordinate - angle introduced in (28) - characteristic width of a jet - (x, y) similarity variable (scaled x and y coordinate) - molecular kinematic viscosity - _T eddy kinematic viscosity - tangential coordinate - fluid density - turbulent shear stress in -direction - _xy, _y components of turbulent shear stress tensor - (x, y) stream function
