Abstract

In this study, results of experiments about the trajectory and the advance velocity of inclined and convergent rectangular surface jet into stagnant ambient have been presented. In order to discharge process simulation was used a flume with 3.2 m length, 0.6 m width and 0.9 m height and a rectangular channel with 6 cm width. Discharge channel was designed in the four angle of convergence 12.5, 25, 45 and 90 degree. This channel injected the jet stream to form of tangent to the surface of ambient and in three different slopes 0, 4 and 8 percent. Receiving fluid had been prepared from urban water. As well as the jet fluid had been prepared from the salt liquidation in water and in three concentrations 5, 15 and 45 gr/l. After running the experiments and using of images routing process were analyzed the data. In this regard, hydraulic and geometric parameters on the trajectory and the advance velocity of jet was investigated. According to the results, increase the slope and decrease the angle of convergence causes increase in length of trajectory and decrease in the advance velocity of jet. Reduce the densimetric froude number causes decrease in length of trajectory. Also, in order to investigate of influence of convergence on the movement path of flow, by comparison of trajectory in convergent channel and simple channel, More relative advance was seen in convergent channel. Finally, using of the data analysis, relation between advance velocity of jet and dependent parameters was determined with RMSE=0.034.
