Flutter Control of a Quasi-three-dimensional Wing in Simplified Unsteady Flow using Forced Jet

One of the special topics in the aeroelastic field is the flutter of the airplane wing at an index speed called the flutter speed, which, if this phenomenon is not controlled, there will be a possibility of destroying the structure (airplane wing). Various methods for wing control have been proposed in the last two decades. In the current research, two-way forced jet momentum embedded on the wing is used to control a pseudo three-dimensional wing with a simplified unsteady flow regime. The jet activation signal at the flutter speed is provided by the pulse width-pulse frequency modulator. The advantages of this modulator include its quasi-linear performance, high precision with the presence of fluctuations and flexibility. In this research, the double aeroelastic, non-reversible and rectangular (Hancock) wing model is considered, and the strip theory is used to develop the lift force during spinball. In the speed of the flutter ball, the swing of the wing is driven to damping by the jet activity, and according to the obtained aeroelastic graphs, satisfactory results have followed.
