| Abstract | A theoretical and experimental study is presented on the hydrodynamic behavior of a submerged turbulent circular jet, impinging normally on flat plates whose areas were formed from segments of a circle. These plates were placed in the flow field produced by a submerged jet. A stagnation pressure model was developed to describe
mathematically the force of the submerged jet which impinged upon the plate. After comparison of the experimentally obtained data with theoretical curves, it was found that the stagnation pressure model may be used to approximate the drag on a flat plate whose area was of random
shape, provided the plate was placed within the specified zone described in this study. |
