Axisymmetric Near-Sonic Jet Validation Case

Effect of Reference Mach Number
 

SA - effect of reference Mach number on u along y=0 SST-Vm - effect of reference Mach number on u along y=0

The plots show examples of the effect of different values of freestream Mach number on the computed centerline velocity (on the 49x49; 31x49; 129x113 grid). Note that the reference Reynolds number is also affected proportionally. Some CFD codes have difficulty computing with quiescent outer conditions, so Mref=0.01 (red curve) is recommended as a reasonable compromise.
