摘要

This paper presents experiments carried out on dielectric barrier discharge plasma actuators. Two areas concerning these actuators are addressed in this work: First, two different experimental techniques used to measure the induced body force are compared. A high precision force balance is used to make a direct measurement of the thrust produced which is then compared with a control volume analysis on data obtained through particle image velocimetry. For the direct measurements the effect of varying the actuator plate length upon which the induced flow acts is also investigated. The results from these tests show that the length of the actuator plate is most influential at higher voltages with the measured force increasing as much as 20% as the length of the plate is decreased. When the two methods are compared against each other, good agreement is found given that the control volume size has a sufficient downstream extent In the second part of the paper, materials with extreme relative dielectric constants (ε) are investigated for performance. Specifically, the use of silica aerogels (ε ~ 1.1) and ferroelectric dielectrics (ε = 1750) are examined. The silica aerogel was found to have a strong effect on thrust generation as compared to the other dielectrics tested. However, the power supplied to the ferroelectric actuator manifests itself primarily as heat generation with no noticeable thrust measured. Especially due to its minimal actuator weight penalty and higher thrust, actuators made with silica aerogel may be quite useful for practical applications.
