THE EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF THE CHAOTIC PHENOMENA OF HEATED JETS

The chaotic phenomena of the coherent structure in the open flow system of heated jetshave been studied by experiments. The present work is concentrated on the relationship betweentypes of the coherent structure in the physical space and asymptotic behaviors of the dynamicalsystem in the phase space.When S = 1 (cold jet), convective instability is everywhere in the flow field. Axisymmetricand belieal modes are the prevailing types of the coherent structure of the jets with two differentnozzle diameters.When...
