Maximum Drag Reduction Asymptotes and the Cross-Over to the Newtonian Plug
R. Benzi, E. De Angelis, I. Procaccia +2
We employ the full FENE-P model of hydrodynamics of a dilute polymer solutions to derive a theoretical approach to drag reduction in wall bounded turbulence. We recapture the resul…

Drag Reduction by Polymers in Wall Bounded Turbulence
Victor S. L'vov, Anna Pomyalov, Itamar Procaccia +1
We address the mechanism of drag reduction by polymers in turbulent wall bounded flows. On the basis of the equations of fluid mechanics we present a quantitative derivation of the…
