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…
The three-dimensional temporal instability of rotating boundary layer flows is investigated by computing classical normal modes as well as by evaluating the transient growth of optimal disturbances. The flows examined are the rotating…
This work explores the dynamic response of a turbulent boundary layer to large-scale reactive opposition control, at a friction Reynolds number of $Re_\tau \approx 2\,240$. A hot-film is employed as the input sensor, capturing large-scale…
We investigated the linear stability of pipe flow with anisotropic slip length at the wall by considering streamwise and azimuthal slip separately as the limiting cases. Our numerical analysis shows that streamwise slip renders the flow…
Reinforcement learning is employed to optimize the periodic forcing signal of a pulsed blowing system that controls flow separation in a fully-turbulent $Re_\theta = 1000$ diffuser flow. Based on the state of the wind tunnel experiment that…
When a chordwise Reynolds number (Re) falls below about $10^5$ the performance of wings and aerodynamic sections become sensitive to viscous phenomena, including boundary layer separation and possible reattachment. Here, detailed…
Modeling of wall-bounded turbulent flows is still an open problem in classical physics, with only modest progress made in the last few decades beyond the so-called `log law', which describes only the intermediate region in wall-bounded…
In the present study, numerical investigations were performed with optimisation to determine efficient non-uniform suction profiles to control the flow around a circular cylinder in the range of Reynolds numbers 4<Re<188.5. Several…
For channel flow at subcritical Reynolds numbers ($Re<5772$), a laminar-to-turbulent transition can emerge due to a large transient amplification in the kinetic energy of small perturbations, resulting in an increase in drag at the walls.…
Well-resolved direct numerical simulations (DNSs) have been performed of the flow in a smooth circular pipe of radius $R$ and axial length $10\pi R$ at friction Reynolds numbers up to $Re_\tau=5200$. Various turbulence statistics are…
An oscillating spanwise pressure gradient is imposed numerically to control the flow separation and reduce the drag of a turbulent flow in a channel with square bars. The transverse flow produces a maximum drag reduction of 25\%, due to…
Turbulent drag reduction through streamwise travelling waves of spanwise wall oscillation is investigated over a wide range of Reynolds numbers. Here, in Part 1, wall-resolved large-eddy simulations in a channel flow are conducted to…
Over the last two decades, both experiments and simulations have demonstrated that transverse wall oscillations with properly selected amplitude and frequency can reduce turbulent drag by as much as 40%. In this paper, we develop a…
We present an experimental realisation of spatial spanwise forcing in a turbulent boundary layer flow, aimed at reducing the frictional drag. The forcing is achieved by a series of spanwise running belts, running in alternating spanwise…
This study investigates active flow control (AFC) of a 30P30N high-lift wing at a Reynolds number Re$_c$ = 450,000 and angle of attack $\alpha$ = 23$^\circ$ using wallresolved large-eddy simulations (LES). Two optimization strategies are…
Pulsatile fluid flows through straight pipes undergo a sudden transition to turbulence that is extremely difficult to predict. The difficulty stems here from the linear Floquet stability of the laminar flow up to large Reynolds numbers,…
We study the behaviour of the streamwise velocity variance in turbulent wall-bounded flows using a DNS database of pipe flow up to $Re_{\tau} \approx 12000$. The analysis of the spanwise spectra in the viscous near-wall region strongly…
Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) is employed to develop control strategies for drag reduction in direct numerical simulations (DNS) of turbulent channel flows at high Reynolds numbers. The DRL agent uses near-wall streamwise velocity…
A direct numerical simulation of incompressible channel flow at $Re_\tau$ = 5186 has been performed, and the flow exhibits a number of the characteristics of high Reynolds number wall-bounded turbulent flows. For example, a region where the…
We consider linear feedback control of the two-dimensional flow past a cylinder at low Reynolds numbers, with a particular focus on the optimal placement of a single sensor and a single actuator. To accommodate the high dimensionality of…
