Abstract
Measurements of the fluctuating turbulent stresses (uiuj)’ in the mixing layer of a two-dimensional jet are presented. These include the intensity, spatial correlation and the wave-number frequency spectra of the fluctuating stresses.The acoustic spectrum perpendicular to the axis of a jet can be approximated with the aid of assumptions about jet similarity and a knowledge of the four-dimensional wave-number frequency spectrum at zero wave-number. In the present paper the four-dimensional spectrum was inferred from measured two-dimensional spectra and the self-noise spectrum perpendicular to a round jet estimated. Good agreement was obtained with measured acoustic spectra.
