Active flow control in supersonic nozzles [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2018
Active flow control in supersonic nozzle mainly concerns Fluidic Thrust Vectoring (FTV) strategies. Thrust Vectoring in fixed symmetric nozzles can be obtained by generating a local perturbation at wall causing flow separations, asymmetric pressure distributions and therefore, the vectoring of the primary jet thrust. The control action can be steady, e.

A Methodology for Robust Load Reduction in Wind Turbine Blades Using Flow Control Devices

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
Decades of wind turbine research, development and installation have demonstrated reductions in levelized cost of energy (LCOE) resulting from turbines with larger rotor diameters and increased hub heights. Further reductions in LCOE by up-scaling turbine

Active Flow Control of Helicopter Rotor Based on Coflow Jet

open access: yesInternational Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2022
When a helicopter rotor undergoes flow separation, the drag of the rotor increases substantially, as does the power demand, which seriously affects the aerodynamic performance and flight safety of the helicopter.

Active gaze control improves optic flow-based segmentation and steering. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
An observer traversing an environment actively relocates gaze to fixate objects. Evidence suggests that gaze is frequently directed toward the center of an object considered as target but more likely toward the edges of an object that appears as an ...

Active Flow Control at Low Reynolds Numbers by Periodic Airfoil Morphing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This paper investigates the application of a periodically deforming airfoil surface for the purpose of flow control at low Reynolds numbers. A physical model has been fabricated by bonding Macro Fiber Composite (MFC) actuators to the underside of a NACA ...

Active flow separation control at the outer wing [PDF]

open access: yesCEAS Aeronautical Journal, 2019
Within the European project AFLoNext, one of the technological streams is dedicated to the investigation of active flow control (AFC) to increase the robustness of the wing tip design at takeoff conditions, whilst allowing the optimization of aerodynamic efficiency in cruise. AFC is used to delay the wing tip stall, which is caused by vortex breakdown,

Performance Assessment of Fluidic Oscillators Tested on the NASA Hump Model

open access: yesFluids, 2021
Flow separation control over a wall-mounted hump model was studied experimentally to assess the performance of fluidic oscillators (sweeping jet actuators). An array of fluidic oscillators was used to control flow separation.
