In this review, we summarize existing trends of flow control used to improve the aerodynamic
efficiency of wings. We first discuss active methods to control turbulence, starting with flat …

The three-dimensional flow of a circular synthetic jet interacting with a turbulent crossflow is
investigated with unsteady Reynold-Averaged Navier–Stokes simulations. The effects of jet …

Flying wing aircraft easily experience wing rock due to the lack of lateral-directional stability,
which causes serious challenges to flight control and safety. Thus, it is necessary to reduce …

The effect of low-speed, circular synthetic jets (SJ) on the turbulent transition of a laminar
boundary layer is studied through direct numerical simulations. The SJ capability in fixating …

The paper presents a joint experimental and numerical characterization of double-orifice
synthetic jet actuators for flow control. Hot-wire measurements of the flow field generated by …

The interaction of an array of finite span synthetic jet actuators with a massively separated
flow was explored experimentally over a cantilevered, swept, and tapered model having a …

This paper investigates the performance of controlling Co-Flow Jet (CFJ) on NACA 0025
airfoil at five different Reynolds numbers of 5· 104, 7.5· 104, 105, 1.5· 105, and 3· 105. To …

Sound pressure levels and flow characteristics of a synthetic jet actuator (SJA) are
investigated experimentally using the following orifice configurations: a) a slender …

This paper presents an experimental study on the effects of the Reynolds number (Re sj=
300, 600, and 900) and porosity (ϕ= 20%–85%) on synthetic jet vortex rings impinging onto …

This paper proposes a novel ant colony hyperheuristic approach for reordering the rows and
columns of symmetric positive definite matrices. This ant colony hyperheuristic approach …
