Thermal Front Formation from Buoyant Surface Jets
Publication: Journal of the Hydraulics Division
Volume 108, Issue 2
Abstract
An explanation is given for the formation of thermal fronts for outfall Froude numbers in the range of F≤ 3.3. It is shown that the homogeneous round jet has a characteristic natural frequency in the range of 0.3<St<0.5 which is damped out beyond x/D≥5. It is suggested that further investigation of the phenomena of thermal fronts is necessary.
