Abstract:Synthetic jet actuators are promising Active Flow Control (AFC) devices which could lead to saving millions of dollars in fuel consumption each year. The Bimorph piezoelectric actuators are an attractive alternative to other type of actuators as active diaphragms and are the focus of this work. Among the properties of a Bimorph actuator, a number of geometrical and physical external factors may have an effect on its performance as a synthetic jet actuator. Using statistical tools some of the physical and geome… Show more
