Turbulence control for drag reduction with active wall deformation

Ecological and economical considerations motivate the search for ways to reduce the skin friction drag in turbulent flows. Several numerical studies have shown that wall shear stress can be lowered at low Reynolds numbers by applying a small amount of wall transpiration. In this study it is investig...
