 Abstract

This paper describes the experimental investigation of the properties of Dielectric Barrier Discharge (DBD) actuators aimed at transition delay techniques. A wide range of geometrical configurations are tested as well as several electrical operational conditions. For the majority of the measurements statistical data for the induced flow field are obtained and for a limited selection of actuators, high sample-rate time resolved measurements are also conducted. All measurements are made in still flow in order to eliminate free-stream effects on the induced velocities. Results show the formation of a thin near-wall jet which could be used as a flow control device.
