According to a study from France, "This paper is a study of a plasma actuator in the absence of external flow by means of particle image velocimetry measurements. The properties of the electric wind produced by the actuator are investigated by spatially resolved and phase-locked measurements."
"The use of a particle image velocimetry apparatus is of great interest to accurately examine the spatio-temporal history of the electric wind formation. The approach consists of evaluating the time required by the induced airflow to reach a stationary state and also in describing the different states of its formation. The electric wind is generated by a single dielectric ...
