IMPACT OF JET AND ITS Mathematical EQUATIONS

    IMPACT OF JET AND ITS Mathematical EQUATIONS OBJECTIVE This blog's purpose is to explore the reaction forces caused by a fluid flow's change in momentum when a water jet contacts a flat plate or a curved surface, and to compare the results by taking into account diverse instances. INTRODUCTION The liquid comes out in the form of a jet from the outlet of a nozzle, which is fitted to a pipe through which the liquid is flowing under pressure. If some plate, which may be fixed or moving is placed in the path of the jet, a force is exerted by the jet on the plate. This force is obtained from Newton’s second law of motion or from impulse-momentum equation. Thus impact of jet means the force exerted by the jet on a plate which may be stationary or moving. In this blog we’ll see the Impact of jet i.e the force exerted by the jet on a plate. JET PROPULSION   Jet propulsion means the movement of bodies, such as ships, aircrafts, rocket etc. with the help of jet of...
