Abstract
The interaction of Mach 0.5, 0.8, and 1.0, parallel, twin circular jets issuing from orifices with center-to-center spacing S/D, where S is the center-to-center distance and D is orifice diameter, 2, 4 and 6 has been investigated experimentally. The characteristics of twinjets are analyzed based on the centerline Mach number decay, exit Mach number and ratio of orifice spacing. As the spacing between the orifice increases, the maximum Mach number point of the combined jet moves downstream. For the Mach numbers studied it is found that as the S/D increases the effect of the counter-rotating vortices on jet mixing decreases. The rate of the twinjet interaction also decreases with S/D increase. As the jets propagate downstream their center-to-center distance decreases continuously and the jets merge to become single jet, for all S/D studied.
