The three-dimensional turbulent wall jet has a lateral half-width that is 5 to 8 times greater than its vertical half-height. This has been previously attributed to strong turbulence generated secondary flow caused by the passage of coherent vortex-ring structures formed at the nozzle exit. In order to assess whether the large lateral growth of the jet is tied to these structures, a grid was placed at the nozzle exit to disrupt the shear-layer that produces the vortex rings at the outlet.
