“…6 One motivation for these studies has been the existence of this type of flowfield in the dilution zone of gas turbine combustors, whereby cold diluent air is injected normally into a primary stream of hot combustion products in order to form a suitable temperature profile at the turbine inlet. It has been of continuing interest to determine the effects of varying flow properties, such as jet or cross-flow velocities and temperatures, and geometric parameters, such as lateral spacing of jets, on velocity and temperature distributions at the combustor exit, To this end, a vortex model of the behavior of a single, isothermal transverse jet has been developed and is described in a recent paper.…”

An analytical model for the behavior of normally injected jets in a cross flow is developed and applied to fluids of differing densities. Central to the model are the dynamics of the vortex pair structure associated with the local jet cross section and the entrairiment of cross flow by jet fluid. Two specific cases are modeled: one involving a single (hot or cold) jet in a cross flow, in which trajectories are found to scale primarily with jet-to-cross flow momentum ratio, and the other involving a series of spanwise jets injected into a cross flow, which indicates scaling with momentum ratio and with the spacing-to-orifice-diameter ratio. In the case of multiple jet penetration, however, merging of the jets into an approximately two-dimensional jet downstream of injection is observed for low spacing-to-diameter ratios.
