A jet with a width of 2.5% the chord length is placed on a NACA0012 airfoil's upper surface simulating the blowing and suction control under Re = 5 × × 10 5 and angle-of-attack 18-deg conditions. Nearly 300 numerical simulations are conducted over a range of parameters (jet location, amplitude, and angle). The physical mechanisms that govern suction and blowing flow control are determined and analyzed, and the critical values of suction and blowing locations, amplitudes, and angles are discussed. The current successful large-scale numerical studies create a useful knowledge base for further exploration of multijet control system.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
