VI. On the capillary phenomena of jets

Published:01 January 1879https://doi.org/10.1098/rspl.1879.0015

    Abstract

    When water issues under high pressure from a circular orifice in a thin plate, a jet is formed whose section, though diminished in area, retains the circular form. But if the orifice be not circular, the section of the jet undergoes remarkable transformations, which were elaborately investigated by Bidone, many years ago.
