Abstract

The subject of the present chapter is the hydrodynamics of laminar submerged jets in the light of the dimensional analysis. Submerged jets are discussed in detail in special monographs devoted to the jet theory (Pai 1954; Abramovich 1963; Vulis and Kashkarov 1965), boundary layer theory (Schlichting 1979), as well as the theory of turbulent flows (Townsend 1956; Hinze 1959).
