This course is offered in English only

This course teaches the aspect of flow control based on the fundamentals of turbulent flows that have been learned. We introduce the linear stability theory of turbulent flows and deal with the formation and control of large-scale turbulent structures. Various empirical and analytical methods for the description of these coherent structures are presented and discussed. Subsequently, various methods for active and passive flow control are discussed in detail. During the lecture, individual sessions are dedicated to various practical applications from the fields of vehicle and aircraft aerodynamics, wind energy and gas turbine combustion. The accompanying exercise supplements the lecture with practical application of the lecture content, including the implementation of various methods in Matlab.
