主 题:DBD plasma actuator flow control Spalding formula drag reduction turbulent boundary layer
摘 要:It is a very difficult task to develop a method of reducing turbulent boundary layer ***,in recent years,plasma flow control technology has demonstrated huge potential in friction drag *** further investigate this issue,a smooth plate model was designed as a testing object arranged with a bidirectional dielectric-barrier-discharge(DBD)plasma *** addition,measurement of skin friction drag was achieved by applying hot wire anemometry to obtain the velocity distribution of the turbulent boundary layer.A method of quantifying the friction drag effect was adopted based on the Spalding formula fitted with the experiment *** plasma actuation was conducted,a velocity defect occurred at the two measuring positions,compared with the no plasma control condition;this means that the DBD plasma actuation could reduce the drag successfully in the downstream of the ***,drag reduction caused by backward actuation was slightly more efficient than that caused by forward *** an increasing distance from plasma actuation,the drag-reduction effect could become *** results also show that the improvement of drag-reduction efficiency using a DBD plasma actuator can achieve about 8.78%in the local region of the experimental flat model.
