Abstract
Thick liquid chambers for heavy-ion inertial fusion energy will use large n umbers of stationary and oscillating molten salt jets to create pockets for target injection and ignition. The modularity provided by multiple jets al lows the study and optimization of single jets prior to studies of the inte ractions of multiple jets. This paper reports the scaling requirements for achieving hydrodynamically similar jets using water with geometrically scal ed nozzles, and experimental results for the formation of stationary and os cillating sheet jets.
