Abstract: This paper investigates the effects of Reynolds number on the wake characteristics of a notchback Ahmed body with effective backlight angle, βe=17.8 deg. The Reynolds number based on the body height was varied from 5×103 ...

Abstract: The effect of nozzle convergence angle of a circular synthetic jet actuator issuing into a turbulent crossflow is investigated using unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes simulations. The study examines three convergence ...
