| 内容記述 | Large-eddy alteration techniques were used to modify the drag characteristics of the turbulent boundary layer. Local skin-friction coefficients were measured for single and multi-element arrays of thin plates suspended in a fully turbulent, flat plate, boundary layer at R(theta) = 3,000. Effects of these devices were measured more than 300 boundary-layer thicknesses downstream to R(theta) = 17,000. It was found that although most of the devices reduced the local skin friction immediately downstream, this reduced skin-friction region persisted for only 100-120 delta-0, after which a rapid rise in skin-friction coefficient occurred, often exceeding flat plate values. Net drag reductions were obtained only for tandem configurations and these reductions were sensitive to device spacing and height. The maximum net drag reduction reported was approximately 7 percent with a device spacing of 10 delta-0 at a height of 0.8 delta-0. |
