Abstract An extensive experimental study using Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) on synthetic jets issuing from different orifice shapes is reported. All data are phase and time averaged to derive mean velocity, half-velocity width and rms velocity profiles in the near field of the jet (0 5, only profiles of circular and square jets become partially self-similar. For synthetic jets, higher turbulence content is measured for all orifice shapes at the centerline and close to the orifice exit in comparison to continuous jets.
