Effect of boundary conditions on turbulence characteristics in two-phase jet flows with phase transitions

It is shown that there are no self-similarity and similarity of transverse fields of correlation moments of fluctuating parameters of phases in two-phase jets, in contrast to one-phase jets. The influence of the initial values of a number of parameters of a two-phase jet (gas temperature, volume concentration of droplets in the initial cross section, and radius of the initial cross section of the jet) on turbulence characteristics is analyzed on the basis of numerical simulations. __________ Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika i Tekhnicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 46, No. 3, pp. 29–40, May–June, 2005.
