contents The twin-nozzle jet in crossflow is a canonical flow structure in various engineering equipment, yet there are limited detailed studies focusing on its dynamical characteristics. In this study, the flow field of a twin-nozzle jet in crossflow, under different velocity ratios (3, 5, and 7) and jet spacing (2d, 3d, and 4d), was measured using particle image velocimetry (PIV) at 40 kHz. Two-dimensional velocity field measurements revealed that the interaction between the front and rear jets is strongly influenced by the jet spacing, leading to variations in jet trajectories, velocity along the trajectories, and vortex dynamics. Notably, both the front and rear jet trajectories are elevated compared to those of a single jet due to the blocking and pressure effects. The trajectories can be fitted to a scaling equation with $r^{(1.5l-5)}d$ as the scaling length. Additionally, the velocity variation, dynamics of the shear layer vortices, local pressure distribution, and turbulent kinetic energy distribution were examined. The findings emphasize the distinctions between single-nozzle and twin-nozzle jets in crossflow while also uncovering the interactions between the front and rear jets. The results demonstrate how varying velocity ratios and jet spacing influence these interactions, providing deeper insights into the complex dynamics at play in twin-nozzle configurations.
