Abstract
A heated plane water jet impinging vertically onto free water surface has been numerically studied based on large eddy simulation method coupled with the volume of fluid approach. The Boussinesq approximation is adopted to simulate the effect of buoyancy. Results showed that there exist two flow patterns for the plane thermal buoyant jet, which are the stable impinging flow pattern and the flapping impinging flow pattern. Distinct temperature stratification can be found in the stable impinging flow pattern, while it disappears in the flapping impinging flow pattern.
