MittalCongratulations to Professor Rajat Mittal on co-authoring a book discussing fundamental principles, analysis techniques and applications for synthetic jets. “Synthetic Jets: Fundamentals and Applications” was written for the beginners and can be used as a guidebook fro researchers, graduate students, and upper-level undergraduate students. The text covers key measurement techniques, computational modeling, and synthetic jet design. The book also explores attempts to improve and accelerate the design and optimization processes (from flow control to electronic cooling and propulsion) involved in a wealth of applied knowledge.

Utilizing prominent experts in the field along with information from numerous journal articles and conference papers, Mittal and fellow author Kamran Mohseni clearly and thoroughly explain the mechanisms of underlying synthetic jet behavior and provides a holistic, systematic approach of the subject.
