Effect of polymer additives on transitioning and turbulent boundary layers
(University of Waterloo, 2021-10-26)Injection of small quantities of polymer solutions in various internal and external turbulent flows can produce a substantial reduction of skin friction drag. This phenomenon, known as Toms phenomenon, has been actively ... -
Investing Flow over an Airfoil at Low Reynolds Numbers Using Novel Time-Resolved Surface Pressure Measurements
(University of Waterloo, 2011-04-12)An aluminum NACA 0018 airfoil testbed was constructed with 95 static pressure taps and 25 embedded microphones to enable novel time-resolved measurements of surface pressure. The main objective of this investigation is to ...
