Flow and conjugate heat transfer study of wall bounded laminar plane jet flows

Abstract

Depending upon the distance of the confining boundaries from the discharge a jet can be analysed as a free jet or a bounded one If the boundaries parallel to inlet axis are sufficiently away from the origin of the jet the flow is termed as a free jet However a bounded jet will occur when it interacts with a parallel wall Bounded jet flows occur in many engineering applications such as environmental discharges heat exchanges fluid injection systems cooling of combustion chamber wall in
