A Numerical Study Of Oscillating Sub-Boundary Layer Vortex Generators Application

A numerical simulation for oscillating sub-boundary layer vortex generator (SBVG) with Co-rotating (Co) and Counter-Rotating (Co-R) configurations was carried out. The device was attached and tested on a flat plate with zero- pressure gradient condition. This three-dimensional (3D) simulation adopte...
