Dynamic Switching of Wall-Reattachment Fluidic Device

Effect of the geometrical configuration of wall-reattachment fluidic device on the switching dynamics, the switching time, and its dispersion, was investigated experimentally by using a large scale model. The results obtained can be summarized as follows: 1) The switching time, its dispersion, and switching probability depend upon the connection of the input to the control port. 2) Effect of the vent and splitter on the jet in dynamic switching is explained commonly by using the margin of a given control flow rate to the switching control flow rate. 3) The switching time ,decreases as input increases, whereas its dispersion remains constant except for small input.
