Electric field simulation of a symmetrical plasma actuator system
对称等离子体激励器系统电场仿真研究

In this paper, the electric field of a symmetrical actuator system is simulated and the plasma flow control mechanism is analysed. The peristaltic acceleration process in electromagnetic field is simulated with finite-difference time_domain method and the result accurately consists with theoretical analysis, and the peristaltic acceleration mechanism is discussed. Our results may provide a theoretical basis for improving the peristaltic acceleration and optimizing the symmetrical plasma actuator configuration.
