An investigation of effect of control jets location and blowing pressure ratio to control base press

open access: yesJournal of Thermal Engineering, 2020
The drag force is an essential factor in any projectile from road vehicles to rocket or aircraft. The total drag includes skin friction drag, wave drag and base drag. The base drag is the drag due to low pressure in the base region of the projectile.

Measurement of Air Drag as Physics Experiment Enrichment at Senior High School Laboratory Using the Air Track Apparatus

open access: yesJurnal Ilmiah Pendidikan Fisika Al-Biruni, 2020
Linear air track is often used in physics learning for linear motion experiments because it can reduce friction between objects with trajectories. However,  the use of air tracks for motion experiments in schools often does not care about aspects of air ...

Drag on a fibre in a counterflow air stream [PDF]

open access: yesPAMM, 2003
AbstractThis paper evaluates the drag on the surface of a fibre moving axially in a counterflow air stream. It is assumed that the fibre velocity is very much greater than the velocity of the air stream.

Flexible conformable hydrophobized surfaces for turbulent flow drag reduction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In recent years extensive work has been focused onto using superhydrophobic surfaces for drag reduction applications. Superhydrophobic surfaces retain a gas layer, called a plastron, when submerged underwater in the Cassie-Baxter state with water in ...

Underwater Drag Reduction Failure of Superhydrophobic Surface Caused by Adhering Spherical Air Bubbles

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Underwater drag reduction using superhydrophobic surfaces is a promising method due to its simplicity and low energy consumption. However, most attempts to obtain drag reduction using superhydrophobic surfaces have failed.

Free Surface Effects on the Hydrodynamic Characteristics of NACA0012

open access: yes水下无人系统学报, 2023
When a transmedia vehicle moves across water and air media, the free surface has a great influence on its airfoil, which brings challenges to the overall design and navigation control.

Numerical Study on Influence of Hydrofoil Clearance Towards Total Drag Reduction on Winged Air Induction Pipe for Air Lubrication

open access: yesInternational Journal of Technology, 2020
A new device for air lubrication called the Winged Air Induction Pipe (WAIP) is studied in the present work. The device, which consists of an angled hydrofoil, uses the low-pressure region produced above the hydrofoil as a ship moves forward.

High-Fidelity Drone Simulation with Depth Camera Noise and Improved Air Drag Force Models

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Drone simulations offer a safe environment for collecting data and testing algorithms. However, the depth camera sensor in the simulation provides exact depth values without error, which can result in variations in algorithm behavior, especially in the ...
