Abstract
Abstract Recirculating turbulent flow within a cavity with an inlet wall jet was examined. In steady water flow profiles were constructed with measurements taken with a Laser Dopplcr Anemometer system mounted on a traversing mechanism for two different inlet velocities. The results are presented in terms of mean velocities and turbulent kinetic energy distributions. Comparisons are then made with results obtained using a finite difference computational scheme based on the k-e turbulence model. In general, good agreement was obtained between the computer code predictions and the experimental data. However, the agreement between measurements and the code predictions was much better for the mean velocity field as compared to the turbulent kinetic energy field.
