Development of a Sensor-Actuator-System for Active Control of Boundary Layer Instabilities in Compressible Flows

  • Conference paper

Abstract

This paper describes the development of an active control system for delaying laminar-turbulent transition in compressible flows. Convective boundary layer instabilities are detected during their linear amplification stage by a reference sensor and reduced downstream through destructive interference of artificial counterwaves.
