Reduction of turbulent skin-friction drag by passively rotating discs
Paolo Olivucci, Daniel J. Wise, Pierre Ricco
A turbulent channel flow modified by the motion of discs that are free to rotate under the action of wall turbulence is studied numerically. The Navier-Stokes equations are coupled…
Separation drag reduction through a spanwise oscillating pressure gradient
Vinh-Tan Nguyen, Pierre Ricco, Gianluca Pironti
An oscillating spanwise pressure gradient is imposed numerically to control the flow separation and reduce the drag of a turbulent flow in a channel with square bars. The transvers…
A review of turbulent skin-friction drag reduction by near-wall transverse forcing
Pierre Ricco, Martin Skote, Michael A. Leschziner
The quest for reductions in fuel consumption and CO2 emissions in transport has been a powerful driving force for scientific research into methods that might underpin drag-reducing…
