Numerical Study of Cylinder Drag Coefficient Reduction Using Passive Flow Control [PDF]
In this study, the cylinder drag coefficient is reduced by using passive flow control. Installing a flat plate in two heights and different longitudinal distances in upstream flow increases the upstream flow momentum of the cylinder, leading to the ...

Comparison of Passive Flow Control Methods for a Cavity in Transonic Flow [PDF]
A comparative study of different passive control techniques was conducted on a cavity with a length of 320 mm with length-to-depth and length-to-width ratios of five and two, respectively. The tests were conducted at a freestream Mach number of 0.71. Both leading-edge and trailing-edge modifications were included in the studies.

Control of Turbulent Flow over a Circular Cylinder Using Tabs
In this study, we investigate tabs applied to turbulent flow over a circular cylinder for the reductions of the mean drag and lift fluctuations. Tabs are small and thin passive devices attached to the upper and lower surfaces of a circular cylinder near ...

Review of Improving the Performance of Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine Using Passive Flow Control [PDF]
Controlling rotor blade flow separation and dynamic stall is required to improve the aerodynamic performance of horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) blades. Active and passive flow controls are the two basic methods for controlling the flow state. The use

The control of the displacement of a passive particle in a point vortex flow
This work reports numerical explorations in advection of one passive tracer by point vortices living in the unbounded plane. The main objective is to find the energy-optimal displacement of one passive particle (point vortex with zero circulation) surrounded by N point vortices. The direct formulation of the corresponding control problems is presented.
