Abstract

A pair of plasma actuators with horseshoe shape is proposed for dynamic manipulation of forebody aerodynamic load at high angles of attack. Preliminary wind tunnel pressure measurements show that asymmetric force over a conical forebody with semi-apex angle 10° can be manipulated by activating the plasma actuator mounted on one side of the cone tip. Further work is suggested.
