Summary

An experimental investigation was conducted to determine the penetration of a circular air jet directed perpendicularly to an air stream as a function of jet density, jet velocity, air-stream density, air-stream velocity, jet diameter, and the distance downstream of the jet. The penetration was determined for nearly constant values of air-stream density at two tunnel velocities, four jet diameters, four positions downstream of the jet, and for a large range of jet velocities and densities. An equation for the penetration was obtained in terms of the jet diameter, the distance downstream of the jet, and the ratios of jet and air-stream velocities and densities.
