Feedback control of turbulence

چکیده
A brief review of current approaches to active feedback control of the fluctuations arising in turbulent flows is presented, emphasizing the mathematical techniques involved. Active feedback control schemes are categorized and compared by examining the extent to which they are based on the governing flow equations. These schemes are broken down into the following categories: adaptive schemes, schemes based on heuristic physical arguments, schemes based on a dynamical systems approach, and schemes based on optimal control theory applied directly to the NavierStokes equations. Recent advances in methods of implementing small scale flow control ideas are also reviewed.

Reduced-order model based feedback control of the Modified Hasegawa-Wakatani model
In this work, the development of model-based feedback control that stabilizes an unstable equilibrium is obtained for the Modified Hasegawa-Wakatani (MHW) equations, a classic model in plasma turbulence. First, a balanced truncation (a model reduction technique that has proven successful in flow control design problems) is applied to obtain a low dimensional model of the linearized MHW equation...
متن کاملFeedback Algorithms for Turbulence Control | Some Recent
Some recent developments on the feedback control of turbulent ows are presented. Physical mechanisms associated with opposition control algorithms are investigated. A new control method based on the sensing and manipulation of vorticity creation at the wall is presented. The results indicate that signiicant drag reduction can be achieved using wall information only. The potential for optimizati...
متن کاملOn the applicability of linear feedback for nonlinear systems in fluid mechanics - American Control Conference, 1999. Proceedings of the 1999
This paper examines the application of linear optimal control theory to a low-order nonlinear chaotic convection problem. Linear control feedback is found to be fully effective only when it is switched off while the state is far from the desired equilibrium point, relying on the attractor of the system to bring the state into a neighborhood of the equilibrium point before control is applied. Li...
متن کاملControl of Spatiotemporal Turbulence in Oscillatory and Excitable Media
Spatiotemporal turbulence or defect-mediated turbulence exists quite generally in excitable and oscillatory media such as chemical turbulence in reaction-diffusion systems and electrical turbulence in cardiac muscle. In many situations spatiotemporal turbulence is very undesirable. For example, ventricular fibrillation, the major reason behind sudden cardiac death, is a turbulent cardiac electr...
