Mean flow and turbulence measurements in a Mach 5 shear layer.Hot-wire study of turbulent mixing in the near field of a Mach 5 jet with extension of the results into the hypersonic range. Mean and fluctuating measurement data are given for the free shear layer of the 10.6-cm diameter jet which was contained in a 61-by-61 cm vacuum chamber and exhausted into a diffuser 44 cm downstream of the jet exit. An auxiliary air supply was used to equalize the static pressures in the chamber and the nozzle. The nozzle wall boundary layer was turbulent at the jet exit, providing measurement data at higher Reynolds numbers, which are also included.
