NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF FREE MIXING LAYER WITH CROSS SHEAR

A spectrum method is used to simulate the time-developing free mixing layerwith cross shear which is introduced in different stages. The results show that the properties of flow are nearly the same for situations whether the cross shear is introduced in theinitial time or in early stage. If cross shear is introduced in the stage that the roll-up ofmixing layer occurs, the turbulent intensities of now will increase and mixture of now willbe enhanced.
