Abstract
Imaging jet flow in various contexts is the subject of this chapter. Configurations such as (a) buoyant helium fountain, (b) multiple jets, and (c) jet impingement are included. These examples illustrate the utility of optical techniques in explaining interesting flow patterns. Quantities such as penetration distance, spreading rates, and instabilities are discussed. Schlieren and shadowgraph images are included.
