Additional information
The research presented in this paper is related to the development of a technique to control the highly unstable flow in a curved diffuser. The results show that flow separation was inhibited and a maximum pressure recovery at the diffuser exit was achieved. The technique is then successfully applied to a large scale aeroacoustic wind tunnel in the University of Southampton (see my other nominated paper on the “Design and performance...”). Similarly, the flow control technique developed in this study can easily be applied to other engineering applications such as the combat aircraft engine intake and racing car diffuser inlet.
