Rôle du soufflage dans le contrôle de l'éclatement tourbillonnaire sur une aile delta

According to flow visualizations performed in water tunnel and referring to a simple phenomenological model describing the nature of exchanges occurring within a two-dimensional mixing layer, a model was built up to specify the nature of flows ensuring the recirculating zone equilibrium over the upper surface of a delta wing at high angle of attack. Perturbing the flows equilibrium leads to delay the vortex breakdown. To cite this article: O. Rodriguez, J. Pruvost, C. R. Mecanique 333 (2005).
