Interference in axisymmetric synthetic jet actuator

Abstract

The paper presents research of phenomena of mechanical wave interference during generate synthetic jets in actuator with two executive elements (speakers). Two speakers work with the same or other phase using the phenomenon of mechanical wave interference (sound wave). In effect the volume of ingestion and expulsion flow is a sum of two speakers' work. In this paper is presented analysis of operation so constructed axisymetric actuator and influence of phase shift - between work of the speakers - on actuator's operation.
