Effects of the Installation Location of a Dielectric Barrier Discharge Plasma Actuator on the Active Passage Vortex Control of a Turbine Cascade at Low Reynolds Numbers

open access: yesActuators, 2022
Because axial flow turbines are widely used as the main components of jet engines and industrial gas turbines, their energy reduction effect is significant, even with a slight performance improvement.

Reinforcement Learning for Active Flow Control in Experiments

open access: yesCoRR, 2020
We demonstrate experimentally the feasibility of applying reinforcement learning (RL) in flow control problems by automatically discovering active control strategies without any prior knowledge of the flow physics. We consider the turbulent flow past a circular cylinder with the aim of reducing the cylinder drag force or maximizing the power gain ...
