Numerical Characterisation of Active Drag and Lift Control for a Circular Cylinder in Cross-Flow

Synthetic jet actuators have shown promise to control drag and lift for a bluff body in cross-flow. Using unsteady RANS CFD modelling, a significant modification of the drag coefficient for a circular cylinder in cross-flow at R e = 3900 is achieved by varying the actuation frequency. The va...
