We carried out high-resolution large-eddy simulations (LESs) to investigate the effects of several separation-control approaches on a NACA4412 wing section with spanwise width of $L_z = 0.6$ at an angle of attack of $AoA=11^{\circ}$ at a…
Recently, Kami\'nski et al. [1] demonstrated that a two-dimensional streamwise waviness with carefully selected amplitude and period can be effectively used in postponement of a flow separation at high Reynolds number which is out of reach…
The application of drag-control strategies on canonical wall-bounded turbulence, such as periodic channel and zero- or adverse-pressure-gradient boundary layers, raises the question of how to describe control effects consistently for…
Spanwise wall forcing in the form of streamwise-travelling waves is applied to the suction side of a transonic airfoil with a shock wave to reduce aerodynamic drag. The study, conducted using direct numerical simulations, extends earlier…
Direct numerical simulations of fully-developed turbulent channel flows with wavy walls are undertaken. The wavy walls, skewed with respect to the mean flow direction, are introduced as a means of emulating a Spatial Stokes Layer (SSL)…
The influence of transversely oriented sinusoidal wall corrugation on an incompressible isothermal flow in the near-wall region, subjected to adverse pressure gradient conditions at a friction Reynolds number of $Re_{\tau} = 2500$, is…
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 experimentally assess the capabilities of an active, open-loop technique for drag reduction in turbulent wall flows recently introduced by Quadrio et al. [J. Fluid Mech., v.627, 161, (2009)]. The technique consists in generating…
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…
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…
A new idea for turbulent skin-friction reduction is proposed, wherein the shape of the solid wall is designed to create the spanwise pressure gradient acting similarly to the well-known method of drag reduction by in-plane spanwise wall…
The present study tests the efficacy of the well-known viscous drag reduction strategy of imposing spanwise wall oscillations to reduce pressure drag contributions in a transitional- and fully-rough turbulent wall flow. This is achieved by…
Here, we present measurements of turbulent drag reduction in boundary layers at high friction Reynolds numbers in the range of $4500 \le Re_\tau \le 15000$. The efficacy of the approach, using streamwise travelling waves of spanwise wall…
Active flow control is applied to improve the aerodynamic performance of a NACA0018 airfoil operating as a single-bladed vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT). Results computed by wall-resolved large-eddy simulations (LES) highlight the…
Direct numerical simulations are performed to contrast turbulent boundary layers over a concave wall without and with free-stream turbulence. Adverse pressure gradient near the onset of curvature leads to sharp decrease in skin friction and…
This research examines the aerodynamic performance of wavy (corrugated) airfoils, focusing specifically on analyzing the impact of two angles of attack: the airfoil's angle of attack and the tail's angle of attack (beta). Simulations were…
This study investigates a mechanism of controlling separated flows around an airfoil using a synthetic jet (SJ). A large-eddy simulation (LES) was performed for a leading-edge separation flow around a NACA0015 airfoil at the chord Reynolds…
