| Research Abstract |
In this study, first a slot injection system of surfactant solution was constructed. Next, the flow visualization and LDV measurements were performed in the flat-plate turbulent boundary layer flow with water or surfactant solution injection from the wall, in order to clarify the mechanism of drag reduction. It is found that in the case of surfactant solution injection, layered-structures parallel to the wall developed in the streamwise direction, and the wall-normal turbulence near the wall is strongly attenuated. Moreover, in both cases of homogeneous and heterogeneous (injected) surfactant solutions mean velocities scaled by the friction velocity are well arranged by the amount of the drag reduction, in which the mean velocity increases with the increase in the drag reduction ratio.
