| Summary: | As an important actuator of the dual parallel jet, the porous nozzle has some non-structural parameters (such as inlet pressure, nozzle spacing ratio, etc.) which have a significant influence on energy transport, chemical combustion and pollutant generation. The research on the microfluidic state of the porous nozzle dual parallel jet, however, remains insufficient because of its microjet pattern and complex intersection process. In this paper, the authors used numerical simulation and an experimental method to clarify the influence of porous nozzles’ non-structural parameters on dual parallel jet characteristics. The results show that the inlet pressure only changes the pressure peak value on the parallel jet axis; the starting point (SP) and peak point (PP) on the parallel jet axis, which are located at <i>X<sub>sp</sub></i> = 22 mm and <i>X<sub>pp</sub></i> = 75 mm, respectively, are not changed; and with the increase in the nozzle spacing ratio, the merging points (MPs) on the parallel jet axis are <i>X<sub>mp</sub></i> = 25 mm, 32 mm and 59 mm, respectively. The merging point and the combined point move to a farther distance and the inner deflection angle of the jet is weakened.
