Numerical Simulation and Calculation of the Process of Interaction between a Swirling Jet and Drift Flow

A mathematical model and results of numerical calculation of the process of interaction between a swirling jet and drift flow are presented in the paper. The structure of flow and the process of chemical reactions are investigated under conditions of transverse injection of a swirling jet of combustion products into a flow of fuel-air mixture. Inferences are made of the possibility of using a transversely injected jet to provide for a gasdynamic stabilization of flame in combustors of gas-turbine engines.
