Description for Drag Reduction of Turbulent Flows by Additives
paperback. Series: Fluid Mechanics and its Applications. Num Pages: 247 pages, biography. BIC Classification: KNBT; PHD. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 13. Weight in Grams: 359.
Drag Reduction of Turbulent Flows by Additives is the first treatment of the subject in book form. The treatment is extremely broad, ranging from physicochemical to hydromechanical aspects.
The book shows how fibres, polymer molecules or surfactants at very dilute concentrations can reduce the drag of turbulent flow, leading to energy savings. The dilute solutions are considered in terms of the physical chemistry and rheology, and the properties of turbulent flows are presented in sufficient detail to explain the various interaction mechanisms.
