Determination of water jet geometric parameters depending on the type of nozzle and jet operation mode

Introduction. The article describes the process of considering the geometric parameters of water jet depending on a water jet operation mode and nozzle type. Within the framework of the study of hydraulic soil treatment in the under-tree zones, it became necessary to study the water jet parameters when using different types of nozzles. There was need to determine the geometric parameters of water flow for calculating the cross-sectional area and determining the structural features of the water jet formation. These characteristics are important for a complete description, subsequent study and calculation of water jet action during hydraulic soil treatment; they also allow studying the real shape and structure of the water jet when using different types of nozzles. Aim of the study. The study is aimed at determining the geometric parameters of the water jet for different nozzles including turbo cutters located at different heights.
