Axis-switching of a micro-jet

Abstract: In this study, it is shown that free microjets can undergo complex transitions similar to large-scale free jets despite relatively low Reynolds numbers. Using an original experimental method allowing for the 3D reconstruction of the instantaneous spatial organization of the microjet, the axis-switching of a micro-jet is observed for the first time. This is the first experimental evidence of such complex phenomena for free micro-jets. Combining these experimental results with Direct Numerical Simulations it is … Show more

“…However, these seemingly contrasting conclusions [21] and [24] are valid only for specific parameters (for pulsed [21] and continuous micro-jets [24]) that cannot be generalized. Nevertheless, the topic of the (pulsed and continuous) micro-jets remains still quite unexplored.…”

“…Gau et al [24] concluded a complete absence of the vortices in the microjet while Cabaleiro and Aider [21] claim the existence of the vortices and their necessity because of the axisswitching phenomenon. However, these seemingly contrasting conclusions [21] and [24] are valid only for specific parameters (for pulsed [21] and continuous micro-jets [24]) that cannot be generalized.…”
