Synthetic jets - Open Access .click

Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2002
The interaction between a conventional rectangular (primary) air jet and a co-flowing synthetic jet is investigated experimentally. The nozzles of both jets have the same long dimension but the aspect ratio of the synthetic jet orifice is 25 times larger.

Two-Dimensional Synthetic Jet Simulation

AIAA Journal, 2000
Direct numerical simulation was used to model an array of two-dimensional synthetic slot jets pulsing into initially quiescent e ow. Such zero-net mass-e ux jets can represent an array of microelectromechanical systems. Fluid ejected by the pulsing jets rolls up into vortex pairs that propagate as a result of their mutually induced velocity ...

Numerical investigation of synthetic jet flowfields

29th AIAA, Fluid Dynamics Conference, 1998
The flowflelds surrounding a synthetic-jet actuating device are investigated numerically by direct simulation. Solutions are obtained to the unsteady compressible Navier-Stokes equations for both the interior of the actuator cavity and for the external jet flowfield.

Hybrid synthetic jets as the nonzero-net-mass-flux synthetic jets

Physics of Fluids, 2006
The “hybrid synthetic jet” combines the zero-net-mass-flux synthetic jet and fluidic pumping through a valveless pump. No fluid is supplied from an external source (blower or compressor). Hot-wire experiments on a demonstration model confirm that the hybrid synthetic jet exhibits a higher extrusion volume flow rate than the ordinary synthetic jet.
