Turbulent Drag Reduction by Spanwise Wall Oscillations
The objective of this paper is to examine the effectiveness of wall oscillation as a control scheme of drag reduction. Two flow configurations are considered: constant flow rate and constant mean pressure gradient. The Navier-Stokes equations are solved using Fourier-Chebyshev spectral methods and the oscillation in sinusoidal form is enforced on the walls through boundary conditions for the sp...
متن کاملWall-oscillation conditions for drag reduction in turbulent channel flow
The drag reduction properties of a turbulent channel flow modified by spanwise sinusoidal oscillations of the walls are investigated by direct numerical simulations. The work is based on the linear relation between the drag reduction and the parameter S, function of the maximum wall velocity and the period of the oscillation. This quantity, first determined by JI-Choi et al. (2002) and later st...
متن کاملOptimal microstructures. Drag reducing mechanism of riblets
We consider an optimal shape design problem of periodically distributed three-dimensional microstructures on surfaces of swimming bodies in order to reduce their drag. Our model is restricted to the flow in the viscous sublayer of the boundary layer of a turbulent flow. There the flow is described by the incompressible steady-state Navier-Stokes equation with a Couette Flow profile. Because of ...
متن کاملMeasurement of temperature profiles in turbulent pipe flow of polymer and surfactant drag-reducing solutions
A device was built to measure temperature profiles of turbulent pipe flows of various drag-reducing fluids. It is easy to use and reliable. We measured temperature profiles over a range of conditions leading to accurate measurements down to y+ 10, for tests carried over Reynolds numbers Re between 10 000 and 90 000. The effects of high heat fluxes and buoyancy, in particular, were quantified to...
متن کاملAn improved diameter scaling correlation for turbulent flow of drag-reducing polymer solutions
The friction coefficient was measured for developed flow of drag-reducing polymer solutions in tubes of 2, 5, 10, 20 and 52 mm i.d. Our results were processed along with other authors' data in terms of different parameters in order to investigate the possibility of developing a simple empirical method for the prediction of the pipe diameter effect on friction. We found that the drag-reduction c...
