An experimental and numerical investigation of drag reduction in a turbulent boundary layer using a rigid rodlike polymer

The drag reduction in a zero pressure gradient (ZPG) turbulent boundary layer (TBL) using a rigid rodlike polymer was experimentally and numerically investigated. Using injection of the rigid polysaccharide scleroglucan, drag reductions of approximately 10–15 % were observed, with three distinct dra...
