Research on Flow Control.

Abstract

This report outlines a coordinated new set of research programs on flow control. The work is being carried out by a team of experts in fluid mechanics and automatic control. Jets, turbulent boundary layers near separation, and delta wing flows form the basis for these studies, aimed primarily at developing fundamentals needed for active control of flows of technical interest. Keywords: Boundary layer control; Turbulent jets; Unsteady boundary layers; Delta wing flows.
