Abstract

Submerged laminar jet impingement on a plane is studied using computation. Steady-state Navier-Stokes equations for the axisymmetric case are solved numerically. The extent of the infinite flow is approximated by applying the boundary conditions at a finite but sufficiently large distance. The tube-exit velocity profile is assumed to be either a fully developed parabolic profile or a flat profile. For the former case, two different nozzle heights from the target plane are considered. The presence of a toroid-shaped eddy at low values of Reynolds number, Re, leads to some interesting observations such as the manner in which the wall shear stress depends on Re. An increase in the height of the nozzle exit from the target plane decreases the wall shear stress, more so at lower values of Re. A change from the parabolic exit velocity profile to the flat profile leads to a decrease in wall shear stress due to decreased momentum flux. The study was motivated by experiments designed to measure the yield shear strength of the vascular endothelium wherein a small saline jet was used to erode the tissue by normal impingement.
