Separated oil-water flows with drag reducing polymers

LC Edomwonyi-Otu, P Angeli - Experimental Thermal and Fluid Science, 2019 - Elsevier
The effects on velocity and turbulent properties of drag reducing polymers added in the
water phase of oil-water flows were studied with Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV). The …

On the link between experimentally‐measured turbulence quantities and polymer‐induced drag reduction in pipe flows

V Voulgaropoulos, I Zadrazil, N Le Brun… - AIChE …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
In this study, we investigate the hydrodynamics of polymer‐induced drag reduction (DR) in
horizontal turbulent pipe flows. We provide spatiotemporally resolved information of velocity …
