Turbulent Jet: A DNS Study

The entrainment of ambient fluid into a turbulent shear flow has been a topic of wide interest for several decades. To estimate the entrainment of ambient fluid into turbulent jet, it is essential to define the boundary of the jet. The question arises as to what should be the appropriate criterion to determine the edge of the turbulent jet. From the present DNS simulations, we observe that there is a need to define two boundaries for the turbulent jet, namely, the Rotational/Irrotational (R/IR) interface termed here as "Outer boundary" and the Turbulent/Non-Turbulent (T/NT) interface as "Inner boundary". The main aim of the present paper is to identify the need for defining the two boundaries for the jet. We also present some interesting observations of the jet flow, essentially on self similarity and self preservation.
