An Experimental Study on Segmented-Encapsulated Electrode Dielectric-Barrier-Discharge Plasma Actuator for Mapping Ice Formation on a Surface: A Conceptual Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A novel design of the dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) actuator/sensor is proposed for mapping the location of icing on a surface. The new design uses segmentation of the embedded electrode of the DBD actuator. Segmented ...
Implementation of Stair-Shaped Dielectric Layers in Micro- and Macroplasma Actuators for Increased Efficiency and Lifetime
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Plasma actuators are electronic devices commonly used for active flow control. These devices have been shown to be effective in a wide variety of fluids engineering applications. In order to increase the efficiency of these ...
Experimental Analysis of Dielectric Barrier Discharge Plasma Actuators Thermal Characteristics Under External Flow Influence
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma actuators have several applications within the field of active flow control. Separation control, wake control, aircraft noise reduction, modification of velocity fluctuations, or ...
New Electro-Active Polymers-Based Plasma Actuators for Simultaneous Flow Control and Ice Protection
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The current work introduces a new device for effective flow control and ice removal applications based on the combination of a nonthermal plasma discharge with the excitation of an electro-active polymer membrane. This new ...
