| Description | A novel fluidic thrust-vectoring (FTV) control method based on dual synthetic jets actuator (DSJA) is proposed and evaluated. Numerical simulations are governed by the compressible Unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes (URANS) equations. According to the results, DSJA is capable of deflecting a primary jet with a velocity of 100 m/s and a height of 50 mm by approximately 18 degrees with a momentum coefficient of 1.96%. It produces comparatively linear control characteristics in almost all deflection angles evaluated (0~23 degrees). The low pressure generated by DSJA, the ejecting enhanced by DSJA, and the co-flow effect produced by the accelerated secondary jet all play roles in the deflection of the primary jet. Since the primary jet is strong enough, the potential of DSJA to provide thrust vector control is revealed. |
