Effect of nozzle pressure ratio and control jets location to control base pressure in suddenly expanded flows

In this paper, computational fluid dynamic (CFD) analysis and experiments have been carried out to study the effect of nozzle pressure ratio, i.e. the ratio of inlet pressure to atmospheric pressure, and the pitch circle diameter of the control jets to regulate the base pressure. The variables consi...
