Abstract
This paper concerns the benefits of the active boundary layer control methods. The main focus was studying the effectiveness of suction control for a laminar flow over an airfoil. However, injection normal to or along the wall was also approached using two numerical methods. For different values and distributions of the velocity control magnitude, a systematic comparison was done. Having the results of the laminar flow, a linear stability analysis based on the small disturbance theory was carried out obtaining both the neutral stability curves and the transition point. In the end, for each case, results were presented with the corresponding observations. Additionally, a study on the dependency of the separation point with respect to the injection velocity magnitude was done.
