Fraunhofer ENAS shows latest R&D results on actuators for active flow control as well as methodes for material charaterization and reliability test from June 19 to 25 at the International Paris Air Show in Le Bourget.
The Fraunhofer institutes presents their topics within oral presentation at the Fraunhofer joint booth. Mathias Lipowski from Fraunhofer ENAS will talk about "Active Flow Control: Pulsed and Synthetic Jet Actuators" on Wed, 21.6., and Thu, 22.6., at 12 am.
Active flow control for aviation, automotive and wind energy systems can only be realized if efficient and robust actuators are available. Fraunhofer ENAS develops actuators with and without mass flow. Especially the latter, so called synthetic jet actuators, were developed to a higher degree of maturity in the projects AFLoNext and Clean Sky 2. By using novel transducer systems and integration concepts, actuators with outlet velocities larger than 100 m/s were feasible. Moreover, robustness tests were carried out which represent an important step toward application of the actuators.
