Abstract
This paper investigates by experiments the effect of exit Reynolds number on self-preservation of a turbulent
plane jet.

Centerline velocity statistics were measured in plane jets issuing from an identical nozzle but,

respectively, with seven Reynolds numbers varying between Re = 4,582 and Re = 57,735, where Re Uj h / (Uj
being the momentum-averaged exit mean velocity, h the slot height and the kinematic viscosity). All
measurements were conducted using single hot-wire anemometry and over an axial distance (x) of 40h.
These measurements revealed a significant Re-dependence of either the mean or turbulent flow field.

As Re

increases, the pace of jet development slows down and, as a result, both the mean and turbulent properties reach
their individual self-preserving states over a longer downstream distance (x).

The centerline integral scale L for

all jets grows linearly with x and the growth rate decreases as Re is increased.
Reynolds number Re L scales with x as Re L ~ x1/2.

It is also found that the local

It appears interesting as well that the scale () of small

turbulence structures in the self-preserving region is related with Re as ~ Re-1. The study finally suggests that
differences of the self-preserving states observed should be related to the differences in the underlying turbulence
structures in the near field of the jets with various Reynolds numbers.

Keywords: plane jet, Reynolds number, self-preservation
