Flow and mixing characteristics of two parallel jets were studied using PIV measurements at different velocities and distances between centers of two nozzles.The results showed that absolute velocity along symmetric line rose but the point of maximum combined velocity barely changed as velocities at nozzle exits were increased.With distance increase between two nozzles
the parallel jets displayed delay in merging process
moving down of combining point
decrease of momentum transported to the symmetric line
and reduce of maximum velocity at combining point.A linear relationship was observed between the spacing ratio and the combining point.Compared to large spacing ratio
small spacing ratio had more obvious impact on the combining point and thus the slope was larger.The turbulence characteristics indicated that main momentum transfer between the two parallel jets occurred in the merging region.As the spacing between two jets was increased
