Abstract

The applicability of active control by periodic suction blowing in spatially evolving plane Poiseuille flow is investigated by the direct simulation of the three-dimensional, incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The results reveal that significant reductions in perturbation amplitudes can be obtained by a proper choice of the control wave amplitude and phase. The upstream influence of the control wave is shown to be confined to a region in the vicinity of the control slot with no apparent effect on the flow development.
