Surface pressure modification driven by a dielectric-barrier-discharge plasma actuator: Performance dependence on airfoil shape

Optimization of the airfoil shape and flow-control device is critical for optimal performance of fluid devices, such as wind turbines and aircraft. In this study, the combined effects of an airfoil and a dielectric-barrier-discharge plasma actuator (DBD-PA), utilized as the flow-control device, were...
