Drag reduction on a transonic airfoil [PDF]
Flow control for turbulent skin-friction drag reduction is applied to a transonic airfoil to improve its aerodynamic performance. The study is based on direct numerical simulations (with up to 1.8 billion cells) of the compressible turbulent flow around ...

Computational Analysis of Turbulent Flow over a Bluff Body with Drag Reduction Devices [PDF]
Reducing aerodynamic drag of heavy trucks is crucially important for the reduction of fuel consumption and hence results in less air pollution. One way to reduce the aerodynamic drag is the deployment of drag reduction devices at the rear of trucks and ...

Superhydrophobic drag reduction in turbulent flows: a critical review
Superhydrophobic (SHPo) surfaces have been investigated vigorously since around 2000 due in large part to their unique potential for hydrodynamic frictional drag reduction without any energy or material input.

Drag Characteristics and Reduction Test for Hub of Coaxial-rotor Helicopter
The drag of coaxial helicopter hub accounts is more than 50% of the total helicopter's waste drag, so it is necessary to research the drag characteristics and reduction design of the hub. Wind tunnel test is carried out for a coaxial helicopter hub model,

Numerical Study of Combined Drag Reduction Bases on Vortex Generators and Riblets for the Ahmed Body using IDDES Methodology [PDF]
The flow fields around vehicle drag reduction devices are three-dimensional, complicated, and unsteady. Meanwhile, the small scale of the drag reduction device brings more challenges to the simulation. An Improved Delayed Detached Eddy Simulation (IDDES)
