Abstract

In this study, a three-hole wedge-shaped yaw meter is used to measure the mean flow characteristics of a circular whirling jet with a diameter of 60 mm. Three nozzles one for free jet and one for whirling jets at five and ten degrees are utilized in this experiment. The nozzles are all 3-D printed from FDM material and have the same profile and exit diameter. Reynolds numbers 8.4e4 and 1.27e5 are used in the experiment, which is based on centerline exit velocity and nozzle exit diameter. The direction of the mean velocity and its profiles are examined in this study, together with the amplitude of the mean axial velocity. The free jet’s saddle-shaped behavior at its departure is absent because to whirling. The fluid rotates anticlockwise and disperses outward due to the centrifugal force produced by the swirl on the main flow field. The jet decays and diffuses considerably sooner than the free jet. It is discovered that the flow is deflected outward by the periphery velocities.
