Abstract
Analysis of flow instability reveals that, as a result of fluid-dynamic feedback, flow fluctuations in the vicinity of slots (or cavities) may occur within narrow-band dominant frequencies and at large amplitudes. An experimental study is made to determine the possible flow patterns and the characteristics of the fluctuating pressures in the neighborhood of slots having five different slot-boundary configurations. The results confirm the existence of well-defined predominantly periodic pressure fluctuations. The relationships among the oscillation frequencies, flow velocities, the oscillation amplitudes, and the slot ratios are determined. The deviations from the analytical results at smaller slot ratios are considered to be due to the nature of the velocity profile of the approach flow and its development in the streamwise direction.
