The author advances the hypothesis of the constancy of the coefficient of turbulent diffusion in the transverse section of the jet. A description is given of the measuring apparatus and of the principal results of investigations connected with the development of the methodology and technique of the experiment.

This method reduces the solution of the boundary-value problem to a problem with initial conditions. For the approximate solution of linear differential equations with variable coefficients, under prescribed initial conditions, the article proposes a method that is technically simple and sufficiently accurate.
