Nitrogen injection under conditions close vicinity of the liquid-gas critical point is studied numerically.The fluid thermodynamic and transport properties vary drastically and exhibit anomalies in the near-critical regime.These anomalies can cause distinctive effects on heat-transfer and fluid-flow characteristics.To focus on the influence of thermodynamics on the flow field,a relatively low injection Reynolds number of 1 750 is adopted.For comparisons,a reference case with the same configuration and Reynolds number is simulated in the ideal gas regime.The model accommodates full conservation laws,real-fluid thermodynamic and transport phenomena.Results reveal that the flow features of the near-critical fluid jet are significantly different from their counterpart.The near-critical fluid jet spreads faster and mixes more efficiently with the ambient fluid along with a more rapidly development of the vortex pairing process.Detailed analysis at different streamwise locations including both the flat shear-layer region and fully developed vortex region reveals the important effect of volume dilatation and baroclinic torque in the near-critical fluid case.The former disturbs the shear layer and makes it more unstable.The volume dilatation and baroclinic effects strengthen the vorticity and stimulate the vortex rolling up and pairing process.

Results reveal that the flow features of the near-critical fluid jet are significantly different from their counterpart. near-critical fluid jet spreads faster and mixes more efficiently with the ambient fluid along with a more rapidly development of the vortex pairing process. Detection failed at different streamwise locations including bo th the flat shear-layer region and fully developed vortex region reveals the important effect of volume dilatation and baroclinic torque in the near-critical fluid case. The former disturbs the shear layer and makes it more unstable. the volume dilatation and baroclinic effects strengthen the vorticity and stimulate the vortex rolling up and pairing process.
