Experimental and neural network modelling of polymer drag reduction in 180° bends

This research investigates the effect of small amounts of drag-reducing polymer (DRP), (Partially hydrolysed polyacrylamide) on single phase water flow in 180° bends using both experimental and artificial neural network (ANN) modelling approach. The results show that, in both straight pipes and U-be...
