Analysis of Drag Reduction Methods and Mechanisms of Turbulent

الملخص EN

Turbulent flow is a difficult issue in fluid dynamics, the rules of which have not been totally revealed up to now.

Fluid in turbulent state will result in a greater frictional force, which must consume great energy.

Therefore, it is not only an important influence in saving energy and improving energy utilization rate but also an extensive application prospect in many fields, such as ship domain and aerospace.

Firstly, bionic drag reduction technology is reviewed and is a hot research issue now, the drag reduction mechanism of body surface structure is analyzed, such as sharks, earthworms, and dolphins.

Besides, we make a thorough study of drag reduction characteristics and mechanisms of microgrooved surface and compliant wall.

Then, the relevant drag reduction technologies and mechanisms are discussed, focusing on the microbubbles, the vibrant flexible wall, the coating, the polymer drag reduction additives, superhydrophobic surface, jet surface, traveling wave surface drag reduction, and the composite drag reduction methods.

Finally, applications and advancements of the drag reduction technology in turbulence are prospected.
