Abstract

The possibility to control different flows of gases is one of the most important in modern aerodynamics. The present investigation considers possibility to control gas flows using cross flow forces. There are several contradictory opinions about this problem. Herein, the influence of such forces on a duct flow is studied analytically and computationally. The results obtained show that cross flow forces may considerably change the flow in desired direction as well as in opposite one. Particularly, it is shown that the flow in the duct can be created by cross forces alone.
