Drag Reduction of Turbulent Flows by Additives is the first
treatment of the subject in book form. The treatment is extremely
broad, ranging from physicochemical to hydromechanical aspects. The
book shows how fibres, polymer molecules or surfactants at very
dilute concentrations can reduce the drag of turbulent flow,
leading to energy savings. The dilute solutions are considered in
terms of the physical chemistry and rheology, and the properties of
turbulent flows are presented in sufficient detail to explain the
various interaction mechanisms. Audience: Those active in
fundamental research on turbulence and those seeking to apply the
effects described. Fluid mechanical engineers, rheologists, those
interested in energy saving methods, or in any other application in
which the flow rate in turbulent flow should be increased.
