Abstract

Results of experimental investigations concerning the interaction between a free air jet and an upstream-moving single pressure pulse (shock wave) are presented. It is shown that depending on the jet Mach number a primary single pulse is converted into a cluster of pressure waves. The number of pressure peaks in the cluster increases with the jet velocity. Frequency analysis of pressure signals indicates furthermore a strong dependence of the spectra on the jet velocity. The transformation of the pressure pulse into a cluster of pressure waves is due to the interaction between the flow and shock inside the jet. As a consequence a “xxx” pattern of pressure waves in the jet core is formed while a cluster of pressure waves is generated outside the jet. The use of the obtained results for explaining the frequency behaviour and feedback mechanism of the self-excited oscillations by the free jet — wall interaction is discussed.
