Accurate numerical simulations of vortex rings impinging on flat boundaries revealed the same features observed in experiments. The results for the impact with a free-slip wall compared very well with previous numerical simulations that used spectral methods, and were also in qualitative agreement with experiments. The present simulation is mainly devoted to studying the more realistic case of rings interacting with a no-slip wall, experimentally studied by Walker et al. (1987). All the Reynolds numbers studied showed a very good agreement between experiments and simulations, and, at Rev > 1000 the ejection of a new ring from the wall was seen. Axisymmetric simulations demonstrated that vortex pairing is the physical mechanism producing the ejection of the new ring. Three-dimensional simulations were also performed to investigate the effects of azimuthal instabilities. These simulations have confirmed that high-wavenumber instabilities originate in the compression phase of the secondary ring within the primary one. The large instability of the secondary ring has been explained by analysis of the rate-of-strain tensor and vorticity alignment. The differences between passive scalars and the vorticity field have been also investigated.

Conclusive experimental evidence is presented for the existence of a low-dimensional temporal dynamical system in an open flow, namely the near field of an axisymmetric, subsonic free jet. An initially laminar jet (4 cm air jet in the Reynolds number range 1.1 × 104 [Lt ] ReD × 9.1 × 104) with a top-hat profile was studied using single-frequency, longitudinal, bulk excitation. Two non-dimensional control parameters – forcing frequency StD (≡fexD/Ue, where fez is the excitation frequency, D is the jet exit diameter and Ue is the exit velocity) and forcing amplitude af (≡ u’f/Ue, where u’f is the jet exit r.m.s. longitudinal velocity fluctuation at the excitation frequency) – were varied over the ranges 10-4 < af < 0.3 and 0.3 < StD < 3.0 in order to construct a phase diagram. Periodic and chaotic states were found over large domains of the parameter space. The periodic attractors correspond to stable pairing (SP) and stable double pairing (SDP) of rolled-up vortices. One chaotic attractor, near SP in the parameter space, results from nearly periodic modulations of pairing (NPMP) of vortices. At large scales (i.e. approximately the size of the attractor) in phase space, NPMP exhibits approximately quasi-periodic behaviour, including modulation sidebands around ½fex in u-spectra, large closed loops in its Poincaré sections, correlation dimension v ∼ 2 and largest Lyapunov exponent λ1 ∼ 0. But investigations at smaller scales (i.e. distances greater than, but of the order of, trajectory separation) in phase space reveal chaos, as shown by v > 2 and λ1 > 0. The other chaotic attractor, near SDP, results from nearly periodic modulations of the first vortex pairing but chaotic modulations of the second pairing and has a broadband spectrum, a dimension 2.5 [Lt ] v [Lt ] 3 and the largest Lyapunov exponent 0.2 [Lt ] λ1 [Lt ] 0.7 bits per orbit (depending on measurement locations in physical and parameter spaces).A definition that distinguishes between physically and dynamically open flows is proposed and justified by our experimental results. The most important conclusion of this study is that a physically open flow, even one that is apparently dynamically open due to convective instability, can exhibit dynamically closed behaviour as a result of feedback. A conceptual model for transitional jets is proposed based on twodimensional instabilities, subharmonic resonance and feedback from downstream vortical structures to the nozzle lip. Feedback was quantified and shown to affect the exit fundamental–subharmonic phase difference ϕ – a crucial variable in subharmonic resonance and, hence, vortex pairing. The effect of feedback, the sensitivity of pairings to ϕ, the phase diagram, and the documented periodic and chaotic attractors demonstrate the validity of the proposed conceptual model.

Rectangular air jets of aspect ratio $2$ are studied at $Re=UD_{h}/\unicode[STIX]{x1D708}=17\,750$ using particle image velocimetry and hot-wire anemometry as they develop naturally or under acoustic forcing. The velocity spectra and the spatial theory of linear stability characterize the fundamental ($f_{n}$) and subharmonic ($f_{n}/2$) modes corresponding to the Kelvin–Helmholtz roll-up and vortex pairing, respectively. The rectangular cross-section of the jet deforms into elliptic/circular shapes downstream due to axis switching. Despite the apparent rotation of the vortex rings or the jet cross-section, the axis-switching phenomenon occurs due to reshaping into rounder geometries. By enhancing the vortex pairing, excitation at $f_{n}/2$ shortens the potential core, increases the jet spread rate and eliminates the overshoot typically observed in the centreline velocity fluctuations. Unlike circular jets, the skewness and kurtosis of the rectangular jets demonstrate elevated anisotropy/intermittency levels before the end of the potential core. The axis-switching location is found to be variable by the acoustic control of the relative expansion/contraction rates of the shear layers in the top (longer edge), side (shorter edge) and diagonal views. The self-induced vortex deformations are demonstrated by the spatio-temporal evolution of the phase-locked three-dimensional ring structures. The curvature-induced velocities are found to reshape the vortex ring by imposing nonlinear azimuthal perturbations occurring at shorter wavelengths with time/space evolution. Eventually, the multiple high-curvature/high-velocity regions merge into a single mode distribution. In the plane of the top view, the self-induced velocity distribution evolves symmetrically while the tilted ring results in the asymmetry of the azimuthal perturbations in the side view as the side closer to the acoustic source rolls up in more upstream locations.
