Temperature contours, H2O local density contours, and temperature curves.
| (a) Temperature contours (top half panels, ) plotted equally spaced in the range [210, 273.15] K and H2O local density contours (bottom half panels) plotted spaced by log in the range [1-4, 1-3] kg/m3 at different altitudes. Ten isocontour lines are plotted for vapor local density fields at the top half panels, spaced by log in the range [1-4, 1-3] kg/m3. The jet is represented from 18De downstream of the nozzle exit up to 210De downstream of the nozzle exit |
| (b) Temperature curves along the centerline |
