Abstract

A unified approach to the problem of jet efflux from symmetrical channels of finite width and possessing a general curvilinear nozzle shape is presented. The nozzle may be composed of polygonal and/or curved-arc segments. Precise nozzle shapes cannot be initially prescribed, however. The solution is based on the combined use of conformal mapping and the Riemann-Hilbert solution to a mixed boundary-value problem. The selection of an appropriate curvature function is described; examples show possible applications.
