Air-water cavity in multi-plunging jet impacts
Narendra Dev, Hèléne Scolan, J. John Soundar Jerome +1
We report the formation of an original dome-shaped air-water cavity at the impact site of closely-packed plunging water jets. The injector assembly consists of concentric rings of…

Ribbing patterns in inertial rotary drag-out
J. John Soundar Jerome, Pierre Trontin, Jean-Philippe Matas
We report pattern formation in an otherwise non-uniform and unsteady flow arising in high-speed liquid entrainment conditions on the outer wall of a wide rotating drum. We show tha…

Air entrainment by turbulent plunging jets: effect of jet roughness revisited
Ivan Redor, Gregory Guyot, Martin Obligado +2
The amount of air entrained by vertical water jets impacting a large pool is revisited. To test available phenomenological models, new data on the jet deformation at impact and on…
