Abstract

This paper provides an overview of the progress made in a study of the
coherent structures of feedback loops found in under-expanded free-jets. In order
to gain a better understanding of the topology and dynamics of these structures the proper-orthogonal decomposition (POD) and dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) techniques will be applied to high resolution numerical datasets.We consider a purely convergent under-expanded free jet with nozzle pressure ratios NPR = {2.2, 2.6} and a nozzle lip thickness tn/d = 1/3 where d = 15mm is the nozzle diameter. The analysis has shown that DMD is more capable than POD in extracting the structure of instabilities from small datasets which correspond well to the experimental observations.
