Abstract
The results of an experimental investigation of the effect of external acoustic perturbations on the stability of millimeter- and submillimeter-scale gas jets flowing out into the atmosphere are presented. Data on flow visualization by the shadow method and the instantaneous velocity fields of the flow by the PIV method are obtained. The sound effect in the jet is shown to lead to the asymmetric mode of instability. The growth of this mode downstream leads to flow bifurcation. Frequency characteristics of the effect for jets of different geometries and jets of different gases are compared.
