A numerical investigation of effects of cavity and orifice parameters on the characteristics of a synthetic jet flow

M Jain, B Puranik, A Agrawal - Sensors and actuators A: Physical, 2011 - Elsevier
A synthetic jet is a quasi-steady jet of fluid generated from the periodic motion of a
diaphragm enclosed in a cavity with opening/s on one or more walls. In this study, numerical …

Evolution of flow structure from a coaxial synthetic jet

S Panda, TB Gohil, V Arumuru - International Journal of Mechanical …, 2022 - Elsevier
In this work, we propose and demonstrate a novel coaxial synthetic jet (CSJ) in which two
cavities are arranged coaxially with 0° orientation angle with inner and annular orifices of …

Numerical study and experimental validation of a valveless piezoelectric air blower for fluidic applications

VT Dau, TX Dinh - Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical, 2015 - Elsevier
In this paper, we report the numerical and experimental study of a valveless microblower
actuated by a lead zirconate titanate (PZT) diaphragm. The blower is numerically studied …

Impingement heat/mass transfer to hybrid synthetic jets and other reversible pulsating jets

Z Trávníček, T Vít - International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, 2015 - Elsevier
This study focused on round, hybrid synthetic (non-zero-net-mass-flux) jets impinging on a
wall. To complete this study, two additional variants of reversible pulsating jets were …

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

Z Trávníček, T Vít, V Tesař - Physics of Fluids, 2006 - pubs.aip.org
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 …

Formation criterion for axisymmetric synthetic jets at high Stokes numbers

Z Travnicek, Z Brouckova, J Kordik - AIAA journal, 2012 - arc.aiaa.org
ASYNTHETIC jet (SJ) is a fluid flow generated by pushing and pulling of the fluid from the
cavity through an orifice or a nozzle. The sealed cavity is typically bounded at one end by a …

Enhancing impinging jet heat or mass transfer by fluidically generated flow pulsation

V Tesař - Chemical Engineering Research and Design, 2009 - Elsevier
Periodic pulsation of high intensity generated by a no-moving-part fluidic oscillator located
upstream from jet generating nozzles was demonstrated to enhance heating (or cooling and …

Enhancement of synthetic jets by means of an integrated valve-less pump: part I. Design of the actuator

Z Trávníček, AI Fedorchenko, AB Wang - Sensors and Actuators A …, 2005 - Elsevier
This study presents a new fluid jet actuator based on a novel principle of generating of a
