Abstract
To complete a previous investigation reported earlier and carried out in an air jet issuing from a 1·0ft. diameter nozzle into still air, additional measurements were made of one-point triple-velocity and two-point double-velocity correlations and the spatial mean gradients of the axial turbulent velocities. The one-point pressure/axial-velocity correlation term was evaluated by using piezo-electric ceramic elements in conjunction with total- and static-pressure probes. For the measurement of spatial mean gradients of the axial-velocity fluctuation, special probes with two parallel wires were constructed. The axial scale of turbulence was found to be almost twice as large as the other two scales. The tangential scale was the smallest. All terms of the integral and differential forms of the turbulence energy equation were evaluated throughout the region and the results are given in dimensionless form.
