Active control of wing rock of a delta wing at post-stall using tangential leading edge blowing

Post-stall roll control utilizing tangential leading edge blowing is demonstrated in a wind tunnel on a delta wing model that exhibited wing rock. The dampening effect of symmetric blowing alone on wing rock is found to be effective up to a certain maximum amount of blowing. A moderate amount of symmetric blowing was shown to be effective in linearizing the asymmetric blowing static rolling moment responses.
