We report laser Doppler anemometry (LDA) measurements of mean velocity and turbulence structure for fully-developed turbulent flow through a rectangular duct of aqueous solutions …
A Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equation framework is developed for modeling polymer-induced turbulent drag reduction by utilizing the finitely extensible nonlinear elastic …
A new low-Reynolds-number k–ε turbulence model is developed for flows of viscoelastic fluids described by the finitely extensible nonlinear elastic rheological constitutive equation …

We have performed direct numerical simulation of the turbulent flow of a polymer solution in a square duct, with the FENE-P model used to simulate the presence of polymers. First, a …
A tensorially consistent near-wall four equation model is developed to model turbulent flow of dilute polymer solutions. The model is validated up to the maximum drag reduction limit …

One effective method for reducing pressure drop in turbulent pipe flows is the injection of Drag Reducing Agents (DRA), a technique that has been used for over 70 years. This study …
This comprehensive literature review delves into various aspects of the drag reduction (DR) phenomenon. To address respective aspects as well as track authors and research outputs …
A low-Reynolds-number k-ω model for Newtonian fluids has been developed to predict drag reduction of viscoelastic fluids described by the FENE-P model. The model is an extension …
