“…1 Liquid jets fall into two basic categories, 2 submerged jets and non-submerged jets, depending on whether the surrounding medium is the same as the medium of the jet. In the case of a typical non-submerged jet, [3][4][5][6] the liquid jet is ejected from a nozzle above the liquid surface into the air, and the trajectory, except for vertical ejection, can be roughly described by the parabolic curve y = x v 0 cosθ v 0 sinθ − 1 2 g x v 0 cosθ , where y is the vertical displacement, x is the horizontal displacement, g is acceleration due to gravity, θ is the slant angle relative to the horizon, and v 0 is the average velocity of the liquid jet from the nozzle. In the case of a typical submerged jet, 1 the liquid jet is ejected from a nozzle below the liquid surface and does not leap out of the free surface.…”
