We present a study of acoustic jets occurring in the vicinity of an orifice in a screen mounted at the end of a waveguide which conducts intense sound. The velocity field is measured by a cooling-power anemometer. We have used an impedance matching principle and demonstrated the ability to generate a strong acoustic jet and to create efficient resonant sound absorbers.
