Influence of geometry on the mixing mechanism and efficiency is studied by comparing Opposed Jets of Cylindrical and Prismatic shapes, having the same hydraulic chamber diameter by 3D CFD models. For the test case, same Reynolds numbers of the jets were provided. The comparison is assessed by hydrodynamics, turbulence parameters and mass transfer
