An optimization study was conducted to find the optimum operational characteristics of a
synthetic jet actuator (SJA) to postpone the static stall separation over an SD7003 airfoil at …

In recent years, studies on the fundamental principle of thrust vectoring using jets have been
conducted to realize next-generation aircraft applications. Various methods for vector control …

This experimental study is focused on a rectangular synthetic (zero-net-mass-flux) jet
impinging on a wall. The working fluid is air. A novel variant of a synthetic jet actuator (SJA) …

This paper presents a fundamental study on jet vectoring control by adjusting the
dimensionless frequency of synthetic jets over time without changing the injection nozzle …

Three different circular synthetic jet modeling inlet conditions are studied for a turbulent
crossflow. The study examines the differences when modeling the whole SJA, neck-only or …

This paper presents a fundamental study of jet directional control, ie, thrust vectoring, using
a synthetic jet generated by an asymmetric stepped slot. We present and discuss the results …

This work explores several low-cost methods for the visualization and analysis of pulsed
synthetic jets for cooling applications. The visualization methods tested include smoke …

Two biomimetic synthetic jet (SJ) actuators were designed, manufactured, and tested under
conditions of a jet impingement onto a wall. Nozzles of the actuators were formed by a …

Synthetic jets produce a time-averaged jet flow using oscillating flow through an orifice.
These devices use the same working fluid as the ambient, and when miniaturized they can …

A novel variant of a synthetic jet actuator (SJA) has been designed, manufactured, and
tested. The novelty consists in a bio-inspired nozzle whose oscillating lip is formed by a …
