OK I got the concept that shear forces will act in an open stream as well Thanks for that. I am using water in my jet the thing which I said above was for the interaction between water and air, which is now clear. In order to get the height of 6 feet I got my velocity of 6.06 m/sec using...

@Chestermiller here are the schematics Sir and it would be really helpful if you can watch some videos related to laminar fountains on youtube

@boneh3ad No my orifice diameter is 8mm. To create inertial effects, solid interaction is important I guess as the viscosity of air is nearly zero. And Reynolds number is simply the ratio of inertial effects and viscosity Re = (density)(velocity)(diameter)/(dynamic viscosity)

Let me tell you the whole working of my jet which I am going to use to produce the laminar stream... Water is pumped into the jet through the tangential inlet attached at the bottom of the Jet, this tangential inlet creates a rotational flow and passes through a filter (foam) to decrease the...

@Chestermiller I have spent my hours on this problem but since this is a field of science and any research in this field is not much so pardon me if I am wrong I know that Reynolds Number is proportional the ratio of inertial forces and viscosity of any flowing fluid and this was going very...

Hi, I am working on the laminar flow and during my calculation at the outlet of my nozzle my Re was even greater than 120,000 however my other calculations seemed legit to me. And someone told me that I am calculating the Reynolds number of an open channel and for that flow can remain in laminar...
