Abstract

Three round jets at Reynolds numbers 1,800, 3,600 and 11,000 are computed using Large-Eddy Simulations based on low-dissipation numerical schemes and explicit selective filtering, in order to study the influence of the Reynolds number on jet self-similarity. At lower Reynolds number, the jet flow achieves self-similarity more rapidly, and then develops at a higher rate. The effects of the Reynolds number on the velocity moments as well as on the budget for the turbulent kinetic energy across the self-similar jet flow are however found to be weak.
