Abstract:

Laminar jet fluidic elements were evaluated for the Harry Diamond Laboratories as a supplement to Contract No. DAAG39-72-C-0001. An evaluation of results is presented and compared to performance of turbulent elements tested under the basic contract. A comprehensive photographic presentation of contamination buildup is included. The program encompassed a total of 24 elements investigated of which 16 were proportional and 8 were bistable.
