Turbulent flows have a number of interesting characteristics such as their mass and heat transfer. One which is very important in the field of aeronautics, is the role played by turbulence in aerodynamic noise production. In fact, one of the main sources of noise within an aircraft engine is the one coming from the exhaust jet (Called "Jet noise"). This comes into conflict with the airport regulations that intend to reduce noise in favour of the surrounding populations, making the study of turbulences with the aim of jet noise reduction an interesting idea. In this project, a facility within the university was created, in order to be able to reproduce what is called a free jet, a flow similar to the one found in an engine exhaust. Then, the resulting jet, which had a Mach number of 0.084 and a Reynolds number of 19.10³ was tested in the laboratory. The procurement, design and assembly of all the elements of the facility has been documented here. In order to validate the facility, and check that the flow obtained with the facility actually resembled that of an engine outlet, the velocity fields, as well as the turbulent intensities, were measured using a technique called Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV). The results were post-processed and checked with the literature, being one important validation condition the fact that the flow had to achieve what is known as self-similarity. This condition should be ideally reached after a specific distance downstream from the nozzle exit. This axial distance is usually measured in diameters, and this experiment covered up to 25 diameters, approximately. In this first approach, the self-similarity was not directly looked for, but rather, evidence that it was attainable with this facility were aimed for. The comparison was made, and the results indicated that the self-similarity was not clearly attained in this experiment, but they suggested that it could be observed by extending the field of analysis a few more axial distances.
