We discuss optical (HST/WFPC2 F555W) and radio (15 GHz VLA) polarimetry observations of the M87 jet taken during 1994-1995. The angular resolution of both of these observations is ∼ 0.2 ′′ , which at the distance of M87 corresponds to 15 pc. Many knot regions are very highly polarized (∼ 40 − 50%, approaching the theoretical maximum for optically thin synchrotron radiation), suggesting highly o...

Direct numerical simulation (DNS) and dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) are used to study the shear layer characteristics of a jet in a crossflow. Experimental observations by Megerian et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 593, 2007, pp. 93–129) at velocity ratios (R = vj/u∞) of 2 and 4 and Reynolds number (Re = vjD/ν) of 2000 on the transition from absolute to convective instability of the upstream shea...

BACKGROUND Jet nebulizers constitute the aerosolization devices most frequently used during mechanical ventilation. Continuous nebulization can influence the delivered tidal volume (V(T)) and lead to significant medication loss during expiration. Ventilators thus provide integrated jet nebulization systems that are synchronized during inspiration and ostensibly keep VT constant. METHODS This ...

This paper considers the general problem of laminar, steady, horizontal, Oseen flow at large distances upstream and downstream of a two-dimensional body which is represented as a line source of horizontal or vertical momentum, or as a line heat source or heat dipole. The fluid is assumed to be incompressible, diffusive, viscous and stably stratified. The analysis is focused on the general prope...

The mixing of air jets into hot, fuel-rich products of a gas turbine primary zone is an important step in staged combustion. Often referred to as “quick quench,” the mixing occurs with chemical conversion and substantial heat release. An experiment has been designed to simulate and study this process, and the effect of varying the entry angle (0°, 22.5°, and 45° from normal) and number of the a...

in this research energetics of the barotropic and baroclinic development for two planetary waves over eastern mediterranean, syria and west of iran and their interaction with surface cyclones were investigated. ahmadi-givi et al. (1384) calculated and examined several selected important terms in the eddy kinetic energy (eke) tendency equation during life cycle of six troughs that were developed...

The effect of topography on storm-track intensity is examined with a set of primitive equation model integrations. This effect is found to be crucially dependent on the latitudinal structure of the background flow impinging on the topography. If the background flow consists of a weak double jet, higher topography leads to an intensification of the storm track downstream of the topography, consi...

A model of a high subsonic jet with a nearby array of exible, aircraft-type panels is studied numerically in two dimensions. The jet is excited by a limited duration, spatially localized starter pulse in the potential core. The long time evolution of unsteady disturbances in the jet, the responses of the panels and the ensuing radiation are computed. The results show that the spectral response ...

To study the influence of impinging height H/D on flow field characteristics oblique submerged jets, numerical calculation an jet was carried out based Wray–Agarwal (W–A) turbulence model. The structure and pressure distribution under various heights (1 ≤ 8) when angle θ = 45° were analyzed. results show that with increase in height, diffusion degree gradually increased velocity decreased reach...
