The goal of this thesis was to both theoretically and experimentally show the effect of a plasma actuator for flow separation control.  In the theoretical part a solver was implemented in MATLAB code, to solve the governing equations describing the plasma actuator.  The experimental part included PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry) measurements of the velocity field induced by the plasma actuator, visualization of the effect in a wind tunnel and the development of a simple model of the plasma actuator based on the empirical result whose purpose is to be used in CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics).

The primary goal of this research is to assess the effect of synthetic jets on flow separation and provide a feedback control strategy for flow separation using synthetic jets. The feedback control synthesis is conducted based upon CFD simulation for a rounded backward-facing step. The results of the synthetic jet experiments on an airfoil showed that synthetic jets have the potential for controlling the degree of flow separation beyond delaying the onset of flow separation. In the simulation, while the jet is ejected slightly upstream from the separation point, the feedback pressure signal is

Abstract:
Boundary layer separation is an unwanted phenomenon in most technical applications, as for instance on airplane wings, ground vehicles and in internal flow systems. If separation occurs, it causes loss of lift, higher drag and energy losses. It is thus essential to develop methods to eliminate or delay separation.In the present experimental work streamwise vortices are introduced in turbulent boundary layers to transport higher momentum fluid towards the wall. This enables the boundary layer to stay attached at  larger pressure gradients. First the adverse pressure gradient (APG) separation bu

This thesis addresses the problem of controlling the unsteady flow separation over an aerofoil using plasma actuators, with the aim of improving the performance of fluid systems through the use of robust feedback controllers.

First, a novel control-oriented reduced-order model for nonlinear systems evolving on attractors is obtained. Its application to the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations is propose

In this work, numerical simulations of flow separation control are performed. The sep-aration control technique studied is called 'synthetic jet actuation'.

Turbulence is modeled with the algebraic model of Baldwin and Lomax. The application of synthetic jet actuators is based in their ability to energize the boundary lay

Active control of flow separation over multi-element high-lift systems of aircraft wings could result in the decrease of drag force, the increase of lift, and the reduction of system complexity.

To maximise the potential of this technology, forms of actuation with high efficiency, low power consumption, fast response, good reliability, and low cost, are required.

Many flow cases in fluid dynamics face undesirable flow separation due to ad-verse pressure gradients on wall boundaries. This occurs, for example, due togeometrical reasons as in a highly curved turbine-inlet duct or on flow-controlsurfaces such as wing trailing-edge flaps within a certain angle-of-attack range.Here, flow-control devices are often used in order to enhance the flow and delayor even totally eliminate flow separation.

Abstract:
In the military arena there is an increase in demand for Low Observable (LO) flight vehicles. This drive for low observability imposes limits on Leading Edge (LE) sweep angles and prohibits the use of a tailplane/fin resulting in unconventional configurations; a typical example of which are Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicles (UCAVs). This class of aircraft poses stability and control problems due to the early onset of flow separation. The focus of this project is on the on the use of Tangential Leading Edge Blowing (TLEB) as a means of separation suppression on such vehicles. This project is uniq
