Abstract
Coanda effect takes place in flow within valves diffuser for certain conditions. The valve plug in half-closed position forms wall-jet, which could be stable or instable, depending on geometry and other conditions. This phenomenon was subject of experimental study using time-resolved PIV technique. For the acquired data analysis the special spatio-temporal methods have been used.
Highlights
The Coanda principle has become increasingly used in a wide variety of applications in many fields of applied dynamics of fluids – see e.g. [2]
Devices containing a jet flow employing this principle usually offer substantial flow deflection, and enhanced turbulence levels and entrainment compared with a free jet flow
Some disadvantages are connected with this phenomenon as jet flow detachment, considerable local increase of turbulence level, and appearance of quasi-periodical structures in the flowfield resulting in generation of pressure fluctuations associated with increased noise level
