Abstract
The results of an investigation of the unsteady flow structure in a turbulent swirling jet obtained using the PIV technology are presented. The greater part of the measurements is carried out at the swirl intensity W0 ≈ 1.7. A part of the data is obtained under other conditions of the swirl jet outflow. To establish the relation between disturbances of different types the phase averaging technique is employed with the pressure fluctuation in the acoustic field of the jet taken as a reference signal. The flow structure is numerically calculated. The results of the investigation show that a quasisteady inhomogeneity observable in the jet flow executes rotational motion relative to the mean flowfield in the jet cross-section, or “precession”. It causes disturbances in the flow ejected by the jet, which transform into acoustic disturbances far away from the jet. The frequencies of the dynamic disturbances near the jet and the acoustic disturbances far away from it coincide with the precession frequency.
