Dynamics of Laminar Jets in Stratified Fluids

We consider the flow of a planar buoyant jet in a stable density stratified fluid. The jet undergoes acceleration then deceleration. The flow exhibits a pair of rotors adjacent to the nozzle and near the jet termination point. This recirculation maintains an entrained conduit of less dense water...
