Three isothermal round jets at a Mach number of 0.9 and a diameter-based Reynolds number of 10 are computed by large-eddy simulation using three grids with increasing resolution in order to investigate the grid dependence of the jet flow field and noise. The jets correspond to two initially fully laminar jets and one initially strongly disturbed jet considered in previous numerical studies. At the exit of a pipe nozzle of radius r0, at z = 0, they exhibit laminar boundary-layer mean-velocity profiles of thickness 0.2r0, 0.025r0 and 0.15r0, and peak turbulence intensities close to 0.2%, 0.3% and 9%, respectively. The grids contain up to one billion points, and, compared to the grids used in previous studies, they are much finer in the axial direction for z ≥ 5r0, and in the radial direction in the outer region of the jet mixing layers. The main jet flow field and noise characteristics given by the simulations, including the mixing-layer thickness, the centerline mean velocity, the turbulence intensities on the nozzle lip line and the jet axis, velocity spectra in the jets, and near-field and far-field pressure spectra, are presented. For the initially laminar jet with thin boundary layers and the initially disturbed jet, significant differences are found with respect to the results from previous studies. The jet development is more rapid, the turbulence intensities just upstream and downstream of the end of the potential core are higher due to the presence of stronger large-scale structures, and more low-frequency noise is generated. For the three jets, however, the results obtained using the present grids are very similar.
