Abstract

In this work, the effect of three different active control strategies namely, pulsed blowing, pulsed suction, and synthetic jets, is studied for a square back Ahmed body. Using a LES numerical simulation, the efficiency of the synthetic actuation on the rear pressure distribution is highlighted.
