Description
Book SynopsisCompiles Information from a Multitude of Sources
Synthetic jets have been used in numerous applications, and are part of an emergent field. Accumulating information from hundreds of journal articles and conference papers, Synthetic Jets: Fundamentals and Applications brings together in one book the fundamentals and applications of fluidic actuators. Clearly and thoroughly explaining the mechanisms of underlying synthetic jet behaviorfrom aerospace to mechanical engineeringthis book addresses a variety of aspects, and provides a holistic, systematic approach of the subject.
Covers Fundamental Principles, Analysis Techniques, and Applications
Designed as a starting point for newcomers, the book is divided into three parts: fundamentals, techniques, and applications, and focuses on a class of incompressible jet flows where the jet is made up of the surrounding fluid. It ex
