Characteristics of Water Jets.

Katsuya YANAIDA

Abstract

The characteristics of a water jet emerging from the nozzle into an infinite space filled with air is described in this paper. The water jet is characterized by the maximum velocity and pressure decay in the jet axis, velocity and pressure distribution, jet spreading width and core length. Especially, the core length of jet can be estimated as a basic factor for the characteristics of a water jet.
