Mixing characteristics of inclined dense jets with different nozzle geometries by Jiang, Mingtao, Law, Adrian Wing-Keung, Song, Jie

“…Interestingly, the duckbill nozzle has a relatively lower rise height compared to the others, potentially due to the strong influence of axis-switching effect. In addition, we also performed numerical simulations using the Large Eddy Simulations (LES) approach with the Dynamic Smagorinsky sub-grid model for the diamond, duckbill and star shape nozzle geometries in the experiments. …”
