Toward the establishment of the manufacturing process of a novel active airflow control device using atmospheric pressure discharge referred as to dielectric- barrier-discharge (DBD) plasma actuator, a full-inkjet-printed DBD plasma actuator is fabricated for the first time. Printed electronics are superior in view of low-cost process and large area printing compared to photolithography process. Electrodes and dielectric layers are formed by silver nanoparticles-based inks and ultraviolet-curable inks, respectively. Surface observation using a digital microscope reveals the significant improvement of the printing accuracy with an inkjet experimental equipment used in this study compared to that fabricated with a commercially supplied inkjet printer. Electrical and mechanical characteristics of the full-inkjet-printed DBD plasma actuator are evaluated through measurements of discharge current, light emission from surface DBD, and induced flow visualization with particle image velocimetry technique. The results obtained in this study indicate that the fabricated actuator works properly as the active airflow control device using surface DBDs. The full-inkjet-printing process allows the fabrication of a flexible DBD plasma actuator that has an arbitrary electrode shape to induce desirable flow patterns and can be installed on a complex curved surface.

全喷墨打印介质阻挡放电等离子体致动器的制造和性能评估

为了建立一种使用大气压放电的新型主动气流控制装置(称为介电阻挡放电(DBD)等离子体致动器)的制造工艺,首次制造了全喷墨打印的 DBD 等离子体致动器。与光刻工艺相比,印刷电子在低成本工艺和大面积印刷方面具有优势。电极和介电层分别由基于银纳米颗粒的油墨和紫外线固化油墨形成。使用数码显微镜进行的表面观察表明,与使用商用喷墨打印机制造的相比,本研究中使用的喷墨实验设备的打印精度显着提高。全喷墨打印 DBD 等离子体致动器的电气和机械特性通过测量放电电流、表面 DBD 的光发射和粒子图像测速技术的诱导流动可视化来评估。本研究中获得的结果表明,制造的执行器可以作为使用表面 DBD 的主动气流控制装置正常工作。全喷墨打印工艺允许制造具有任意电极形状的柔性 DBD 等离子体致动器,以产生所需的流动模式,并且可以安装在复杂的曲面上。本研究中获得的结果表明,制造的执行器可以作为使用表面 DBD 的主动气流控制装置正常工作。全喷墨打印工艺允许制造具有任意电极形状的柔性 DBD 等离子体致动器,以产生所需的流动模式,并且可以安装在复杂的曲面上。本研究中获得的结果表明,制造的执行器可以作为使用表面 DBD 的主动气流控制装置正常工作。全喷墨打印工艺允许制造具有任意电极形状的柔性 DBD 等离子体致动器,以产生所需的流动模式,并且可以安装在复杂的曲面上。
