This paper investigates effective layout of a dielectric barrier discharge plasma actuator for a flow separation control on the NACA0012 wing using computational simulations. The flow condition of low speed and low Reynolds number, M(sub infinity) = 0.1 and Re = 1.0 x 10(exp 5) is considered. Three cases of locations of the actuators are simulated. The actuator is placed at the 5 percent, 10 percent and 20 percent chord from the leading edge for each case. When the low velocity is induced by the actuator, the location has little effect on the capability to suppress the flow separation. However, if the higher velocity is induced, the actuator placed near the separation point can provide the better capability. Further increasing the angles of attack, another separation occurs from the trailing edge. Then the actuator placed near the leading edge can not suppress such separation. This is the control limitation of the single actuator. The result motivates use of the multiple plasma actuators for effective separation control.
