Effects of modulation frequency on plasma-induced jet and vortex evolution

The modulation frequency exerts a significant effect on the evolution of plasma-induced vortices, giving rise to three distinct flow structures: vortex-free evolution, leapfrogging, and coexistence of multiple vortex pairs. Among them, the formation of leapfrogging enhances the entrainment coefficient of the plasma jet, thereby potentially enabling more effective flow control.

Abstract

The modulation frequency exerts a significant effect on the evolution of plasma-induced vortices, giving rise to three distinct flow structures: vortex-free evolution, leapfrogging, and coexistence of multiple vortex pairs. Among them, the formation of leapfrogging enhances the entrainment coefficient of the plasma jet, thereby potentially enabling more effective flow control.
