| Description | An investigation of a heated jet was conducted in conjunction with tests of an axial-flow jet-propulsion engine in the Cleveland altitude wind tunnel. Pressure and temperature surveys were made across the jet 10 and 15 feet behind the jet-nozzle outlet of the engine. Surveys were obtained at pressure altitudes of 10,000, 20,000, 30,000, and 40,000 feet with test-section velocities from 30 to 110 feet per second and test-section temperatures from 60 F to -50 F. From measurements taken throughout the operable range of engine speeds, tail-pipe outlet temperatures from 500 F to 1250 F and jet velocities from 400 to 2200 feet per second were obtained. The jet-survey data presented extend the work previously done with low-velocity and low-temperature jets to the region of high velocities and high temperatures. The results obtained agree with previously determined experimental data and with predicted theoretical expressions for the dimensionless transverse velocity and temperature profiles across a jet. The spread of both the temperature and the velocity profiles was very nearly linear. Dimensionless plots of temperature and velocity along the axis of a heated jet agree with experimental results of tests with a cold jet. |
