Abstract

The applicability of active control by periodic suction-blowing in spatially evolving plane Poiseuille flow is investigated by the direct simulations of the two-dimensional, incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. All the computations were performed for Reynolds number (Tile = 7500) which is linearly unstable for this flow. The results reveal that significant reductions in perturbation amplitudes can be obtained by a proper choice of the control wave amplitude and phase even for large disturbance amplitudes. The upstream influence of the control wave is also investigated.
