Abstract

The nonsteady dynamics of turbulent axially symmetrical jets in stratified fluid with a great density gradient (pycnocline) is studied in laboratory experiments in the large test reservoir with artificial temperature stratification at the Institute of Applied Physics, Russian Academy of Sciences (IAP RAS) simulating wastewater flows from underwater collectors in coastal cities. An underwater survey of jets in the pycnocline region has been carried out along with synchronous measurements of internal waves. It is shown that a jet quasiperiodically oscillates in a vertical plane, thus effectively generating internal waves when interacting with the pycnocline. It is ascertained that the axially symmetrical mode of jet oscillations is a source of internal waves.
