Verification of drag-reduction capabilities of stiff compliant coatings in air flow at moderate speeds
Skin frictional drag reduction efficiency of “stiff” compliant coating was investigated in a wind tunnel experiment. Flat plate compliant coating inserts were installed in a wind tunnel and the measurements of skin frictional drag and velocity field were carried out. The compliant coatings with vary...
