the vortex stre<strong>et</strong> is unstable at 25%. Thus, a duty-cycle of 25% should result in pressure fluctuations at<br />

the trailing edge. This may produce non-stationary lift and drag performances. However, previous<br />

publications have demonstrated that the most efficient actuation consists of using an unsteady<br />

actuation with a low duty-cycle value [10, 30]. The discrepancy with the present study may result from<br />

the location of the control device compared to the position of the natural separation point or from<br />

small differences in the local airflow induced by the <strong>plasma</strong> discharge.<br />
