Experiments on Cavitation Control around a Cylinder Using Biomimetic Riblets

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Experimental investigations were conducted to uncover the impact of cavitation control—through the use of biomimetic riblets on cavitating flows around a circular cylinder.

Numerical Study on the Corner Separation Control for a Compressor Cascade via Bionic Herringbone Riblets

open access: yesAerospace
Bionic herringbone riblets are applied to relieve the flow near the blade endwall in a linear compressor cascade under the incidence angle of −4° to 6° at a Reynolds number of 382,000.

Energy amplification in channel flow over riblets

open access: yes2011 IEEE International Symposium on Computer-Aided Control System Design (CACSD), 2011
A number of methods of reducing the drag over airfoils have been investigated. This paper considers the use of riblets, which are structures that run parallel to one another that are positioned longitudinally to the flow. It has been shown experimentally that when the shape, spacing and height of the riblets are optimized, the drag coefficient can be ...

Numerical analysis of turbulence characteristics in a flat-plate flow with riblets control

open access: yesAdvances in Aerodynamics, 2022
A comparative study about riblets-controlled turbulent boundary layers has been performed to investigate the turbulence characteristics associated with drag reduction in a compressive flat-plate flow (where the free-stream Mach number is 0.7) by means of

Drag reduction within radial turbine rotor passages using riblets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
In this paper, reducing the friction losses in a radial inflow turbine rotor surface by adding engineered features (riblets) is explored. Initially, computational fluid dynamics analysis was used to study the operating mechanism of riblets and to test ...

Microshape Control, Riblets, and Drag Minimization [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, 2013
Relying on the rugosity effect, we analyse the drag minimization problem in relation to the microstructure of the surface of a given obstacle. We construct a mathematical framework for the optimization problem, prove the existence of an optimal solution by $\Gamma$-convergence arguments, and analyze the stability of the drag with respect to the ...
