In this study, a simple model based closed-loop algorithm is used to control the separated flow downstream a backward-facing step. It has been shown in previous studies that the recirculation bubble can be minimized when exciting the shear…
Many experimental and numerical studies report a large reduction of the recirculation bubble in Backward-Facing Step flows or airfoils in stall situation when excited at the natural shedding frequency $f_0$. Through a simple experiment…
Closed-loop control of an amplifier flow is experimentally investigated. A feed-forward algorithm is implemented to control the flow downstream a backward-facing step. Upstream and downstream data are extracted from real-time velocity…
A novel, model free, approach to experimental closed-loop flow control is implemented on a separated flow. Feedback control laws are generated using genetic programming where they are optimized using replication, mutation and cross-over of…
The separated flow downstream a backward-facing step is controlled using visual information for feedback. This is done when looking at the flow from two vantage points. Flow velocity fields are computed in real-time and used to yield inputs…
This study investigates active flow control in two-dimensional flows at a Reynolds number of 100 using Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL). We utilize DRL to develop flow control strategies that enhance energy efficiency and minimize energy…
An array of twelve circular-orifice synthetic jet actuators (SJAs) was used to provide the unsteady forcing required for flow separation control over a National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) 0025 airfoil at a chord-based…
The effect of duty cycle (DC) and blowing ratio on synthetic jet flow control over a stalled NACA 0025 airfoil at Re_c=10^5 was investigated experimentally. A finite-span microblower array operating with burst modulation was tested across a…
We experimentally perform open and closed-loop control of a separating turbulent boundary layer downstream from a sharp edge ramp. The turbulent boundary layer just above the separation point has a Reynolds number $Re_{\theta}\approx…
Linear optimal gains are computed for the subcritical two-dimensional separated boundary-layer flow past a bump. Very large optimal gain values are found, making it possible for small-amplitude noise to be strongly amplified and to…
Flow generated noise are caused shear flows and, hence, they can be used as feedback to control the flow. Existing flow control uses state variables like velocity, pressure, or vorticity, none use acoustic observables as the primary control…
The present study report direct numerical simulation (DNS) of a circular jet and the effect of a large scale perturbation at the jet inlet. The perturbation is used to control the jet for increased spreading. Dual-mode perturbation is…
We demonstrate flow rectification, valveless pumping or AC-to-DC conversion in macroscale fluidic networks with loops. Inspired by the unique anatomy of bird lungs and the phenomenon of directed airflow throughout the respiration cycle, we…
Opposition-control of the energetic cycle of near wall streaks in wall-bounded turbulence, using numerical approaches, has shown promise for drag reduction. For practical implementation, opposition control is only realizable if there is a…
A variational technique is used to derive analytical expressions for the sensitivity of recirculation length to steady forcing in separated flows. Linear sensitivity analysis is applied to the two-dimensional steady flow past a circular…
Three-dimensional control is considered in the flow past a backward-facing step (BFS). The BFS flow at Reynolds number $Re=500$ (defined with the step height and the maximum inlet velocity) is two-dimensional and linearly stable but…
It is of special interest in some conventional chemical technologies to provide either fast mixing of reagents or rapid quenching of final chemical product. One of most promising techniques to achieve it is mixing of multiple jets radially…
The flow around a symmetric aerofoil (NACA 0012) with an array of flexible flaplets attached to the trailing edge has been investigated at Reynolds numbers of 100,000 - 150,000 by using High-Speed Time-Resolved Particle Image Velocimetry…
The maximum amplitude of mechanical oscillators coupled to optical cavities are studied both analytically and numerically. The optical backaction on the resonator enables self-sustained oscillations whose limit cycle is set by the dynamic…
This paper presents a study on wave cancellation in forced jets. Building on recent work on real-time control of forced turbulent jets [1,2], we here assess the effect of jet upstream conditions and nonlinearity on wave-cancellation…
