Abstract: A double-sided fluidic oscillator, includes a primary feedback loop unit, a secondary feedback loop unit with two outlet and one inlet, and a common mixing chamber. Two perpendicular oscillator jets operating at different oscillation frequencies produce perpendicular and bi-stable pulsating flow oscillations, simultaneously. The proposed design of the fluidic oscillator is a double-sided fluidic oscillator. Also, disclosed is a method of achieving an enhanced heat and mass transfer by better mixing due to the wide sweeping pattern over a target surface using the double-sided fluidic oscillator.

Abstract: A nozzle with an inlet and an outlet, including a shell, a rotor element located inside the shell and configured to be driven into rotation about a rotation axis upon being subjected to the action of a fluid flow entering the nozzle inlet and circulating through the nozzle towards the nozzle outlet, and a stationary splitter element located inside the shell, downstream of the rotor element, along the passage of the fluid flow. The rotation axis coincides with a main direction along which the fluid flow projects from the nozzle outlet. The rotor element includes peripheral helical grooves configured to permit passage of the fluid flow and cause rotation of the rotor element. The splitter element includes splitter openings communicating with a downstream end of the peripheral helical grooves to cause splitting and modulation of the fluid flow as a function of rotation of the rotor element with respect to the stationary splitter element. The nozzle further includes flow conditioning elements located inside the shell, downstream of the splitter openings, and configured to cause recombination of the fluid flow, split and modulated by the splitter element, into a pulsatile jet of fluid projecting from the nozzle outlet along the main direction that coincides with the rotation axis.

Abstract: Provided is a fluidic oscillator circuit for a nozzle assembly configured to generate oscillating sprays of fluid from an outlet of the nozzle assembly and to improve spray performance of fluid having low temperatures or high viscosity. In one embodiment, provided is an interaction region for a fluidic oscillator circuit that includes an apex protrusion shaped to assist with generating vortices within the interaction region. In another embodiment, provided is an interaction region for a fluidic oscillator having a power nozzle that includes at least one finger protrusion that lengthens the power nozzle to create jets of fluid in the interaction region that are less diffused to improve cold performance of the fluidic oscillator circuit.

Abstract: Various implementations include, an out-of-plane feedback-type fluidic oscillator. including a first portion, a second portion, a middle portion coupled between the first portion and the middle portion, and an axis of rotation. The middle portion includes a first side, a second side opposite and spaced apart from the first side, and a middle plane, an interaction chamber, a fluid supply inlet, an outlet nozzle, a first feedback a channel, and a second feedback channel. The first side is coupled to the first portion, and the second side is coupled to the second portion. The first side, the second side, and the middle plane extend circumferentially around the axis of rotation. The middle plane is disposed equally distanced from the first side and the second side. The fluid stream oscillates as it flows through the interaction chamber such that the fluid stream oscillates as the fluid stream exits the outlet nozzle.

Abstract: A low flow compact spray head design for cleaning applications, especially for camera lens wash includes a miniature spray nozzle head which is about 5 mm in diameter or less for a single direction spray nozzle and about 8 mm in diameter of less for a nozzle with multiple sprays. The washer fluid is fed from the bottom of nozzle along a flow axis and is separated into two flows via two power nozzles or inlets which turn the flows 90° to become opposing jets impinging upon each other inside an interaction region. Uniform stream lines are generated by the two direct facing jets and converge at the nozzle throat to become a uniform spray fan, which is on a plane perpendicular to the axis of cylindrical nozzle head. This fluidic circuit design enables a miniature size low flowrate nozzle to operate well consistently with low flow rate (e.g., a flow rate of about 150 mL/min to about 300 mL/min at 25 psi, or even a flow rate of about 250 mL/min at 25 psi or above, at a viscosity of about 25 CP) at cold temperate (−4° F. or lower) with 50 percent ethanol. This nozzle design is capable of generating two or more different oriented spray fans (e.g., fans spraying in opposing directions) from one single nozzle.

Abstract: An external lens washing system has an aiming fixture configured to support and constrain an external lens which is exposed to the elements and apt to become soiled with debris. A nozzle assembly is configured to be supported and aimed toward the external lens by the aiming fixture and has at least one laterally offset washing nozzle projecting from the aiming fixture to a spray washing fluid toward the external lens surface, spraying at a shallow, glancing spray aiming angle to impinge upon and wash the lens external surface. Optionally, an integrated image sensor and lens washing assembly is configured for use with a remote control method for cleaning an exterior objective lens surface and includes a sealed image sensor housing assembly including an integral, remotely controllable lens cleaning system with an optimized configuration for aiming one or more cleansing sprays from one or more laterally offset fluidic oscillators.
