Enhancement of inline mixing with lateral synthetic jet pairs at low Reynolds numbers: The effect of fluid viscosity

Abstract:

In this paper, mixing between two liquid streams of the same flow rate in a planar mixing channel enhanced by means of three lateral synthetic jet pairs is examined using PLIF and PIV at net flow Reynolds numbers of Ren=2, 10 and 83. The changes in the flow Reynolds numbers are produced with the use of fluids with different dynamic viscosities. The synthetic jet pairs are operated 180o out-of-phase and at a range of actuation frequencies (characterized by the dimensionless Strouhal number Str...
