| Abstract | In this research, observations were made on a two-dimensional water jet impinging upon an inclined wall. From the results of the experiments, functional relationships existing between the jet angle, the angle of inclination of the wall, the Froude number of the flow and the dependent variables such as the pressure distribution, the size and shape of the profile of the jet transition, and the energy losses, were established. Three jet thicknesses were used; the jet angle was varied from 7.5° to 30° to the horizontal; and the angle of inclination of the wall ranged from the vertical to 45° with the vertical. The functional relationships existing between the variables are presented in graphical form; these are expected to prove useful in design work involving a two-dimensional jet of liquid impinging upon a plane wall. |
