This experimental study explored the effects of axisymmetric sinusoidal excitation on structural and mixing characteristics in the equidensity jet in crossflow (JICF). Planar laser-induced fluorescence imaging of acetone seeded in the jet fluid was used in this quantification, where the jet Reynolds number was fixed at R e j = 2300 and crossflow velocity was varied. Jet-to-crossflow momentum-flux ratios J ranged from J = 61 , with a convectively unstable upstream shear layer (USL) in the absence of forcing, to J = 7 , with a globally unstable USL. Sinusoidal excitation had a relatively significant influence on the convectively unstable JICF at larger J values, especially when the USL was locked-in to the forcing frequency, causing the jet cross section to become more symmetric and causing molecular mixing, quantified in both centerplane and cross-sectional planes, to improve. For a globally unstable JICF, only sinusoidal forcing corresponding to clear lock-in conditions, close to the fundamental shear-layer frequency and/or at very high amplitudes, affected jet structure, with somewhat moderate improvements in molecular mixing. Typically, excitation conditions creating enhanced jet penetration and spread did not correlate directly with improved molecular mixing; there was a stronger correlation of improved mixing with creation of a more symmetric jet cross section, in some cases with a counter-rotating vortex pair structure.
