Abstract This work investigates the active control of a fully developed turbulent boundary layer by a submerged synthetic jet actuator. The impacts of the control are explored by measuring the streamwise velocities using particle image velocimetry, and reduction of the skin-friction drag is observed in a certain range downstream of the orifice. The coherent structure is defined and extracted using a spatial two-point correlation function, and it is found that the synthetic jet can efficiently reduce the streamwise scale of the coherent structure. Proper orthogonal decomposition analysis reveals that large-scale turbulent kinetic energy is significantly attenuated with the introduction of a synthetic jet. The conditional averaging results show that the induction effect of the prograde vortex on the low-speed fluid in a large-scale fluctuation velocity field is deadened, thereby suppressing the bursting process near the wall.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
