The novel drag reduction techniques have been developed these last years at the Applied Aerodynamics department using RANS solvers and " far-field " drag extraction....
The intrinsic stability of flowsTransition between laminar-turbulent flows and related drag reduction aspects. Modeling of turbulence. Flow stability... Development of methods to calculate the turbulent-laminar transition point and related drag reduction aspects. Acoustics.
The plasmotrons can use also for drag reduction problem solving.... The data are presented on the bow drag reduction at the blow-out of plasma jets and chemically active gas as well as by creating a heat release source upstream of the body at the expense of a powerful optical pulsating discharge....
