The velocity and turbulence fields associated with a streamwise 45° inclined jet in a crossflow are investigated in three dimensions. Using Stereo-PIV data, full 3D rendering of the 3-component velocity field and turbulent characteristics are achieved and used to study the near field flow structure of the jet flow. A two dimensional vortex detection algorithm is also used to further assess the vortical structures in the flow.
