Abstract

This study investigates the reattachment of flow on a stalled NACA 0025 airfoil with an array of circular synthetic jet actuators. Experimental flow visualizations are used to assess the spanwise control authority of the array and the three-dimensionality of the flow. Numerical simulations provide insights into the flow structures created by the actuation, and how they evolve with different parameters.
