A method for active flow control of a fluid flow that flows along a flow surface includes generating a first local velocity field in the fluid flow by introducing a first vortex structure into the fluid flow by a first flow control actuator coupled to a first actuation site of the flow surface, and introducing a second vortex structure into the first local velocity field by a second flow control actuator coupled to a second actuation site of the flow surface located downstream of the first actuation site, when a head vortex of the first vortex structure has propagated with the fluid flow downstream the second actuation site.
