Abstract:The performance of active flow control on a NACA 64 3 -618 laminar wing at an effective streamwise Reynolds number of 64,000 with and without sweep (Λ = 30° and 0°) is evaluated at post-stall angles of attack. Actuation is implemented near the leading edge using discrete, wall-normal, steady vortex generating jets (VGJs). The effect of increasing spanwise distance between jets along the leading edge of the wing is studied. For the swept wing configuration, lift coefficient shows a strong dependence on the numb… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
