Drag Reduction by Wavy Surfaces

Recent studies on turbulent friction drag reduction by wavy surfaces are reviewed. Special focus is laid upon numerical studies of fully developed flow in a channel having wavy surfaces. Both the surfaces driven by the flow (i.e., passive surfaces) and those driven by the external power (i.e., activ...
