Tahar Bouzaher}, country = {}, institution = {}, abstract = {This study involves a numerical simulation of the flow around a NACA2415 airfoil, with a 15°angle of attack, and flow separation control using a rod, It reposes inputting a cylindrical rod upstream of the leading edge in order to accelerate the transition of the boundary layer by interaction between the rod wake and the boundary layer. The viscous, non-stationary flow is simulated using ANSYS FLUENT 13. Our results showed a substantial modification in the flow behavior and a maximum drag reduction of 51%. }, journal = {International Journal of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering}, volume = {8}, number = {5}, year = {2014}, pages = {880 - 883}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/9998176}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/89}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 89, 2014}, }
