Heated asymmetric plane jet in incompressible turbulent operation

Mean and fluctuating temperature and velocity fields are measured in a slightly heated 29.6-m/sec plane jet flow expanding into still air on one side and a uniform 8-m/sec flow on the other. Measurement techniques applied include Pitot tubes, hot wires, thermocouples, Pt wires, and two- and three-wire probes; the results are presented graphically and discussed, with comparison of theoretical closure models and examination of velocity and velocity-temperature triple correlations. Regions of dynamical and thermal countergradient flux are shown to exist simultaneously. In the displacement regions, total production terms are near zero, although no direct evidence of negative production is found.
