“…Plasma actuators, and more specifically dielectric barrier discharge actuators, have demonstrated their authority to manipulate fundamental flow dynamics such as separated flows [6,7,8,9,10,11], developing shear layers [12,13,14,15] or boundary layer laminar-to-turbulent transitions [16,17,18]. In most of these papers, the actuator is used in context of open-loop control but plasma discharges find a new route in the construction of closed-loop strategies by using DBD [19,20,21,22,23,24]. Instead of manipulating a flow dynamic, the actuator can be used as a generator of predefined perturbations easily tuned by the applied electrical signal [25].…”
