Abstract
A numerical study was performed to assess the influence of buoyancy on plane, parallel jets. Results indicate that, relative to isothermal jets, the location along the vertical symmetry plane at which the two jets merge (the merge point) decreases with increasing jet inlet temperature. This decrease is attributed to higher entrainment rates for the heated jet relative to the isothermal jet. It was also found that for sufficiently high values of the Archimedes number, the merge point becomes nearly independent of the initial jet spacing.
