Mathematical Techniques

A brief review of current approaches to active feedback control of the fluctuations arising in turbulent flows is presented, emphasizing the mathematical techniques involved. Active feedback control schemes are categorized and compared by examining the extent to which they are based on the governing flow equations. These schemes are broken down into the following categories: adaptive schemes, schemes based on heuristic physical arguments, schemes based on a dynamical systems approach, and schemes based on optimal control theory applied directly to the Navier-Stokes equations. Recent advances in methods of implementing small scale flow control ideas are also reviewed.

Control Methodology

Feedback stabilization of inviscid and high Reynolds number, axisymmetric, swirling flows in a long finite-length circular pipe using active variations of pipe geometry as a function of the evolving inlet radial velocity is studied. The complicated dynamics of the natural flow requires that any theoretical model that attempts to control vortex stability must include the essential nonlinear dynamics of the perturbation modes. In addition, the control methodology must establish a stable desired state with a wide basin of attraction. The present approach is built on a weakly nonlinear model problem for the analysis of perturbation dynamics on near-critical swirling flows in a slightly area-varying, long, circular pipe with unsteady changes of wall geometry. In the natural case with no control, flows with incoming swirl ratio above a critical level are unstable and rapidly evolve to either vortex breakdown states or accelerated flow states. Following an integration of the model equation, a perturbation kinetic-energy identity is derived, and an active feedback control methodology to suppress perturbations from a desired columnar state is proposed. The stabilization of both inviscid and high-Re flows is demonstrated for a wide range of swirl ratios above the critical swirl for vortex breakdown and for large-amplitude initial perturbations. The control gain for the fastest decay of perturbations is found to be a function of the swirl level. Large gain values are required at near-critical swirl ratios while lower gains provide a successful control at swirl levels away from critical. This feedback control technique cuts the feed-forward mechanism between the inlet radial velocity and the growth of perturbation's kinetic energy in the bulk and thereby enforces the decay of perturbations and eliminates the natural explosive evolution of the vortex breakdown process. The application of this proposed robust active feedback control method establishes a branch of columnar states with a wide basin of attraction for swirl ratios up to at least 50% above the critical swirl. This study provides guidelines for future flow control simulations and experiments. However, the present methodology is limited to the control of high-Reynolds number (nearly inviscid), axisymmetric, weakly nonparallel flows in long pipes.

Active Feedback Control

In this paper we apply a filtered-X algorithm to an active feedback control structure and derive the transfer function of a closed-loop control system. Simulation studies are then carried out on the closed-loop property while varying the parameters (input frequency, delays in plant, amplitude and phase of modeling filter). Several properties of adaptive feedback control are revealed. Experimental studies on feedback active noise control of noise in a finite duct and a small enclosure are described, and outstanding active noise control effects are achieved. Experimental results of closed-loop frequency response are also provided.

The use of active (feedback) control to alter the bifurcation structure of dynamical systems is discussed and illustrated with an example. It is shown that with the use of a feedback controller effecting small perturbations in the boundary conditions, one can stabilize some of the otherwise non-stable orbits embedded in the chaotic attractor. The controller also can be used to destabilize stable flows or, in other words, to induce chaos in otherwise laminar (fully predictable), non-chaotic flow. Finally, the controller can be used to switch at will from one flow pattern to another.
