Wide-envelope spacecraft need to operate at the Mach number far away from the design point. For better engine inlet performance at those operation states active flow control technology is needed to be used. Both NS-DBD plasma flow control and jet flow control methods were studied. Results shows both methods and improve the engine inlet performance. The flow rate and total pressure recovery ability is increased and drag is reduced. More results with unsteady control and optimized control parameters will present in the final article
