A model-based control theory for boundary flows requires a model for the relevant fluid dynamics that accurately captures the physics involved, including interactions between the actuators and the system, while also being simple enough to run in real time. In the present work, we develop a simple model for simulating stalled flow past a flat plate. Additionally, we show that analysis of results provided by the model motivates a control scheme using active vortex generator jets.
