Abstract:
Active control of air flow over aircraft wings can significantly improve aerodynamic performance. The pulsed jet actuator is a particularly promising technology – compared to constant blowing, it can suppress flow separation more effectively with a reduced net mass flow. This talk will focus on the latest research progress in the Clean Sky 2/H2020 WINGPULSE project, which plans to develop and demonstrate advanced pulsed jet actuator concepts for flow separation control.
The talk will be followed by a tour of the labs in Engineering.
