Abstract

The response of a subsonic round jet to internal excitation by an acoustic wave has been examined using flow visualization and noise measurements. The jet was subjected to pulse excitation and to harmonic excitation. In both cases large-scale vortex ring structures were observed in the jet mixing layer. With pulse excitation, interactions between the vortex rings were observed, but no associated noise emission could be detected.
