Keywords: synthetic jet , actuator, actuation condition, flow control

The experiment using synthetic jet to fulfill the airfoil flow control is performed. The results show that stalling characteristic is improved, and maxim lift coefficient is improved on a certain extent. At last, problems in experiment are discussed.
