Experiments to investigate the mixing performance of unlike doublet impinging jets are conducted. Reynolds number of simulants used in this study rages from 1.0 to 1.5 Cold flow test is performed to investigate the hydrodynamic effect and spray of the impinging jets are collected locally and calculated by using Rupe's mixing efficiency equation. Momentum exchanges and relative velocity ratio between two jets are taken as the main parameter to represent the effect of enlargement of the orifice diameter. As diameter ratio increases, the corresponding momentum ratio where maximum mixing efficiency occurs and relative velocity at the maximum mixing efficiency ranges 0.6 to 0.7, respectively. Penetration depth can be taken as a prominent parameter to estimate the mixing efficiency.
