Drag Reduction by Surfactant Solutions in Gravity Driven Flow Systems
Efflux time measurements are carried out for gravity draining of a liquid from a large cylindrical tank (where the flow is essentially laminar) through single exit pipe in the absence and presence of Cetyl Pyridinium Chloride (CPC) surfactant solutions. The variables considered are initial height of liquid in the tank, dia. of tank, length of the exit pipe and concentration of surfactant. T...
متن کاملA Mechanism of Polymer Induced Drag Reduction in Turbulent Pipe Flow
Polymer induced drag reduction in turbulent pipe flow was investigated using a non-intrusive laser based diagnostic technique, namely Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV). The drag reduction was measured in a pressure-driven flow facility, in a horizontal pipe of inner diameter 25.3 mm at Reynolds numbers ranging from 35 000 to 210 000. Three highmolecular-weight polymers (polyethylene oxide 2×10 6...
متن کاملExperiments in Turbulent Pipe Flow with Polymer Additives at Maximum Drag Reduction
In this paper we report on (two-component) LDV experiments in a fully developed turbulent pipe flow with a drag-reducing polymer (partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide) dissolved in water. The Reynolds number based on the mean velocity, the pipe diameter and the local viscosity at the wall is approximately 10000. We have used polymer solutions with three different concentrations which have been c...
متن کاملOptimally amplified large-scale streaks and drag reduction in turbulent pipe flow.
The optimal amplifications of small coherent perturbations within turbulent pipe flow are computed for Reynolds numbers up to one million. Three standard frameworks are considered: the optimal growth of an initial condition, the response to harmonic forcing and the Karhunen-Loève (proper orthogonal decomposition) analysis of the response to stochastic forcing. Similar to analyses of the turbule...
متن کاملDrag reduction in the turbulent Kolmogorov flow.
We investigate the phenomenon of drag reduction in a viscoelastic fluid model of dilute polymer solutions. By means of direct numerical simulations of the three-dimensional turbulent Kolmogorov flow we show that drag reduction takes place above a critical Reynolds number Re(c). An explicit expression for the dependence of Re(c) on polymer elasticity and diffusivity is derived. The values of the...
