... flowing through micro-channels in the microchip itself. Since laminar flow is likely to result for reasonable pressure drops in these micro-channels, the heat transfer rate will need to be enhanced if this approach is to be successfully used. Synthetic jets, which are the main focus of this research...

... 26 03 2009 An agitated circular turbulent jet with a coaxial annular synthetic jet actuator is investigated experimentally. The mean and turbulent velocities are measured by a hot-wire anemometer at a jet Reynolds number of 6400. The measured iso-velocity contour maps indicate...

... 26 03 2009 The properties of a flow field of a synthetic jet are studied using hot wire anemometry. The experimental results are compared with an analytical model of a continuous jet derived in spherical coordinates. The radial velocity profiles at various radial distances from...
