ABSTRACT (Maximum 200 words)The DURIP grant enabled us to acquire a complete and powerful stereo Particle Imaging Velocity (PIV) ,system, equipment for experimentally implementing real-time feedback flow control, and all the necessary equipment for automatic control of the flow facilities at the Gas Dynamics and Turbulence Laboratory (GDTL). All of these equipment items enabled us to get detailed Ply measurements simultaneously with pressure measurements. We then used the techniques described in the rest of this report to obtain the first experimental results based reduced order model and controller based on the model.
ABSTRACTThe DURIP grant enabled us to acquire a complete and powerful stereo Particle Imaging Velocity (PIV) system, equipment for experimentally implementing real-time feedback flow control, and all the necessary equipment for automatic control of the flow facilities at the Gas Dynamics and Turbulence Laboratory (GDTL). All of these equipment items enabled us to get detailed PIV measurements simultaneously with pressure measurements. We then used the techniques described in the rest of this report to obtain the first experimental results based reduced order model and controller based on the model. We have successfully implemented the controller with very encouraging results. The results presented in this report of based two papers: one we presented in an AIAA conference last summer ) and one we will present in another AIAA conference in early January 2006 (Caraballo et al. 2006).In this report results for subsonic cavity flow control using a reduced-order model based feedback control derived from experimental measurements. The model was developed using the Proper Orthogonal Decomposition of PIV images in conjunction with the Galerkin projection of the Navier-Stokes equations onto the resulting spatial eigenfunctions. A linear-quadratic optimal controller was designed to control the time coefficient and tested in the experiments. The stochastic estimation method was used for real-time estimation of the corresponding time coefficients from 4 dynamic surface pressure measurements. The results obtained showed that controller was capable of reducing the cavity flow resonance at the design Mach 0.3 flow, as well as at other flows with slightly different Mach number. In the present work we present several improvement made to the method. The reduced order model was derived from a larger set of PIV measurements and we used 6 sensors for the stochastic estimation of the instantaneous time coefficients. The reduced order model so obtained showed a better con...
