| Abstract: | The oscillation modes of a supersonic circular twin jet and multijet with square configuration where the center-to-center spacing of nozzles was fixed to 1.4 times the nozzle diameter were investigated experimentally. It is found that the twin jet oscillates simultaneously in three different oscillation modes for the pressure ratios of about 4.1. From the acoustical observation, these oscillation modes are identified as one lateral oscillation mode perpendicular to a plane composed of the twin jet axes and two lateral oscillation modes parallel to this plane. For a multijet with a square configuration, only one lateral oscillation mode was observed. In this case, it is observed that when the spacing between two facing sides of the square formed by four jets is stretched, the spacing between the other two sides shrinks and vice versa. |
