The present paper verifies experimentally the theoretical result by Talamelli and Gavarini (Flow, Turbul. & Combust., 2006), who proposed that the wake behind the separation wall between the two streams of a coaxial jet creates the condition for an absolute instability. This absolute instability, by means of the induced vortex shedding, provides a continuous forcing mechanism for the control of the flow field. The potential of the found control mechanism as well as its robustness has been verified and its ability to enhance the turbulence intensity within the inner and outer shear layer has been demonstrated.

Abstract
The present paper verifies experimentally the theoretical result by Talamelli and Gavarini (Flow, Turbul. & Combust., 2006), who proposed that the wake behind the separation wall between the two streams of a coaxial jet creates the condition for an absolute instability. This absolute instability, by means of the induced vortex shedding, provides a continuous forcing mechanism for the control of the flow field. The potential of the found control mechanism as well as its robustness has been verified and its ability to enhance the turbulence intensity within the inner and outer shear layer has been demonstrated.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
