Hot-wire anemometry measurements of collared-jets
The purpose of this project is to conduct an experimental investigation using hot-wire anemometry to understand the effects of collared jet nozzles on jet flow. The collars used are namely circular, squared and triangular collared jets. Each collar shape can be altered in collar length for in depth...
