Abstract
AbstractThe theory of stochastic equations and the theory of equivalence of measures previously applied to flows in the boundary layer and in the pipe are considered to calculate the velocity profile of the flat jet. This theory previously made it possible to determine the critical Reynolds number and the critical point for the flow of the plane jet. Here based on these results the analytical dependence for the index of the velocity profile is derived. Velocity profiles are calculated for a laminar-turbulent transition in the jet. This formula reliably reflects an increase of the energy transferred from a deterministic state to a random one with an increase of the index of the velocity profile. Results show satisfactory agreement with the known experimental data for the velocity profile of the flat jet. Using obtained results it is possible to determine the location of technical devices for laminarization of the flow in the jet. This is important both for reducing friction in the flow around aerodynamic vehicles and for maintaining the jet profile if it is necessary to ensure the stability of the flow characteristics. Also the obtained relations can be useful for researching of the processes in combustion chambers, in the case of welding and in other technical devices.
