Dynamic loading on impact surfaces of a high subsonic elliptic jet

The feedback resonance in a high subsonic velocity range was investigated for the case where a small aspect ratio (2:1) elliptic jet impinged perpendicularly on a flat plate. This resonance was observed for Mach numbers greater than 0.7 for plate locations between 4 and 9 major radii downstream of the exhaust plane. At the predominant resonant conditions, the loading region and sound source terms were found to be concentrated along the major axis direction on the impact surface.
