  ABSTRACT: This paper reports an experimental study on a liquid injector assembly integrated with an ultra-high frequency pulsed air jet that operates at 21 kHz. The active air-blasting assembly steadily injects a liquid through four micro-nozzles of 0.4 mm diameters each, positioned around a 1 mm nozzle through which the pulsed actuation jet flows out at supersonic velocity. High-frequency compressible air vortexes and shock waves generated by the injector atomize the liquid stream into finer droplets and distribute them to a larger area to improve mixing with the ambiance. The paper presents the design details and preliminary studies on the flow field characteristics of this novel injection scheme, which is a potential candidate for high-speed flow mixing and control applications.
