Used in gas stoves and heaters to mix fuel with oxygen for combustion.
: Depending on the Reynolds number , a jet can be laminar (smooth and predictable), transitional , or turbulent (chaotic and mixing-heavy).
Gas jets are characterized by their momentum and flow regimes. As gas escapes a nozzle, it interacts with the surrounding environment (ambient gas or liquid), creating complex fluid dynamics:
