Optimal stretching in the reacting wake of a bluff body.
We experimentally study spreading of the Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction behind a bluff body in a laminar flow. Locations of reacted regions (i.e., regions with high product concentration) correlate with a moderate range of Lagrangian stretching and that range is close to the range of optimal stretching previously observed in topologically different flows [T. D. Nevins and D. H. Kelley, Phys. Rev...
متن کاملStochastic modelling and feedback control of bistability in a turbulent bluff body wake
A specific feature of three-dimensional bluff body wakes, flow bistability, is a subject of particular recent interest. This feature consists of a random flipping of the wake between two asymmetric configurations and is believed to contribute to the pressure drag of many bluff bodies. In this study we apply the modelling approach recently suggested for axisymmetric bodies by Rigas et al. (J. Fl...
متن کاملPlasma Actuators for Bluff Body Flow Control
The aerodynamic plasma actuators have shown to be efficient flow control devices in various applications. In this study the results of flow control experiments utilizing single dielectric barrier discharge plasma actuators to control flow separation and unsteady vortex shedding from a circular cylinder in cross-flow are reported. This work is motivated by the need to reduce landing gear noise f...
متن کاملUnsteady features of bluff body wake with application to building wake length
This study is targeted at obtaining fluctuating characteristics of building wakes through measurement of unsteady velocity fields with time-resolved particle image velocimetry (PIV). Proper orthogonal decomposition is applied to the PIV data to identify low-dimensional substructures of the building wake. This leads to a more reliable estimation of the fluctuating ground-level length of the buil...
متن کاملLinear feedback control of bluff body wakes
In this project, linear feedback control is used to modify the dynamics of fluid flows. We focus on two system identification and controller design strategies that target separated wakes behind bluff bodies. In particular, we aim to reduce the form drag and suppress the large fluctuations that typically develop in such wakes and are detrimental to efficiency and safety in a large number of indu...
