The multichannel discharge plasma synthetic jet actuator [PDF]
Sensors and Actuators A: Physical, 2017 The plasma synthetic jet actuator (PSJA) is a flow control device capable of generating high speed pulsed jet. However, the performance of conventional PSJA is restricted by low discharge efficiency and small control area, because one power supply only drives one electrode couple.
