EFFECT OF NOZZLE SHAPE ON TURBULENT JETS

Spring 2019, Academic Group Project

I designed, modeled, and 3D printed shaped nozzle extension attachments for my undergraduate Mechanical Engineering junior project. 

 

• Created in Spring 2019, group of 2

• Wrote a research proposal describing motivations, mathematical formulations, past research in the topic, anticipated procedure, and data collection/analysis methods

• Designed exit cross-sections to have the same hydraulic diameter to account for wetted area to perimeter ratio 
• 3D printed nozzles in the undergraduate fabrication laboratory

• Performed data analysis in MATLAB and Excel

• Presented findings to Aerospace & Mechanical Engineering faculty and teaching assistants
