Classical planar 2D-PIV measurements and time-resolved visualizations enriched by low-level processing are used for the reconstruction of the Kelvin-Helmholtz vortex passing in the near field of a circular and a 6-lobed orifice jet flow. In the circular jet, the entrainment is produced in the braid region, being interrupted in the presence of the, Kelvin-Helmholtz ring. The latter compresses the streamwise vortices and alters their self-induction role. Conversely, the 6-lobed orifice geometry allows the Cutting of the Kelvin-Helmholtz structures into discontinuous ring segments, Consequently, into these discontinuity regions streamwise large scale structures are developing. These streamwise structures are permanent thus controlling and enhancing the jet entrainment which is not altered by the Kelvin-Helmholtz Structures passing.
