Abstract: Turbulent flow of shallow depth in the form of a jet was produced in a tank constructed of two large parallel walls. The space between the walls was small compared with the lateral dimensions of the tank so that the turbulent flow in the tank was confined by the walls to quasi-two-dimensional motion and affected by the wall friction. Three series of tests were conducted. The distance between the walls was varied to produce different confinement and friction efffects. Dye was introduced to the jets as the source fluid. The concentration of the dye and the entrainment flow rate were determined using the video imaging method.
