Abstract
To develop vortex generator jet (VGJ) method for flow control, the turbulence flow in a 144°conical diffuser with and without vortex generator jets are simulated by solving Navier-Stokes equations with κ -e turbulence model. The diffuser performance, based on different velocity ratio (ratio of the jet speed to the mainstream velocity), is investigated and compared with the experimental study. On the basis of the flow characteristics using computation fluid dynamics (CFD) method observed in the conical diffuser and the downstream development of the longitudinal vortices, attempt is made to correlate the pressure recovery coefficient with the behavior of vortices produced by vortex generator jets.
