Numerical modeling of the laminar-turbulent transition control using a dielectric barrier discharge

详细

The control of laminar-turbulent transition driven by Tollmien–Schlichting waves is studied. The control is realized by means of accelerating the boundary layer flow using a dielectric barrier discharge. As distinct from the previous studies based on the solution of the boundary layer equations, the discharge effect on the main flow and unstable disturbances are described by the Navier–Stokes equations.
