Extract

The results are presented of an investigation of a particular type of baffle for the production of symmetrical velocity profiles having high ratios of maximum to mean velocity in ducted incompressible flow. Two similar families of profiles are obtained depending on whether a short (12 diameters) or a long (48 diameters) entry length is used before the baffle. The highest value of the maximum to mean velocity ratio obtained is 1·42 and the pressure loss coefficients associated with the use of the baffle are given together with an indication of the effect of Reynolds number.
