摘要
The synthetic jets have been identified as a promising technique for various fields of both dynamic fluid and aerodynamics, by using different numerical simulations which recently have been played an important role in their development. In the aim to provide the flow mechanisms by influencing both their visualization and their theoretical analysis provided by the implementation of the different validation code, several passive and active techniques have been studied to explore particularly their characteristics. The present work investigates the performance of the Moving Boundary technique which is one of many different computational tools implemented to reproduce the flow behavior of a 3D synthetic jet. The experimental work is a well stabilized test case used as a CFD benchmark by the CFDVAL 2004 workshop. The main feature of the present work is in use of a moving boundary implemented by use of generating computational mesh at every time step of the unsteady computation. Results are first intended to calibrate versus the measurement in order to be sure that phases are accordance. Several points and lines positions are chosen to compare the averaged velocity components. The preliminary results are encouraging and allow reproducing at least qualitatively the flow behavior animations of the synthetic jet. Nevertheless further improvements have to be added, mainly in grid generation and probably in turbulence model selection. The results given in this paper will be used for validating perspective computational studies to control the boundary layer separation.
