Abstract

The discrete frequency sound produced by jets issuing from a convergent, rectangular nozzle of aspect ratio 4.24 was investigated. Experiments were performed both with the free jet and with the jet impinging on a hard ground surface. The impingement tones that dominate the impinging jet spectra show a definite staging behavior which appears to be biased toward the free jet screech frequency once the separation distance exceeds the region of substantial shock cell development. The frequency variation of the impingement tone stages fit the details of a feedback cycle if the disturbance convection velocity is chosen to be 20 percent higher than that necessary to satisfy the screech feedback loop. Phase locked optical records show a flapping mode of jet oscillation with tones at or near the screech frequency, with superimposed symmetric oscillations when a second dominant tone of unrelated frequency appears in the spectrum.
